the earliest i expect an announcement from Pentax is PMAI in February next
year and the earliest i expect it available is around PhotoPlus in November
of that year. although i have a pile of high quality lenses, including FA*,
A*, and Limiteds, and most of the recent macros, high quality lenses on a
body that can't capture the image when i need it doesn't do me any good.
Pentax might surprise us with an announcement at PhotoPlus this year, in
which case figure the summer of next year before it is available. i believe
that the surprise won't happen, no matter how necessary it is. the 5D
announcement has made the 645D even more questionable, as far as i am
concerned.

If Pentax comes out with something close for close the price, I'll
re-consider.
