William Robb and Cotty are right, regarding my concern.
I want to be able to upgrade my camera body and have it work with legacy
lenses AND have a large selection of new lenses available.
My concerns with Pentax are:
1. They are slow to market.
2. Their selection of new digital bodies is, to date, two. The second,
in many ways, a step down, not a step up.
3. Lenses appear to being discontinued, with very few new ones being
made available.
4. Pentax has very underpowered marketing.
5. I suspect most consumers doing research into the DSLR market are not
going to buy Pentax for some of the above reasons, further eroding
Pentax market share.
6. Overall net loss for Pentax Imaging Group.
7. Now the takeover rumors.
My biggest concern is I'm afraid of investing in a dead-end system.
My capabilities are going to come to a dead end _long_ before the system
I have.
