what's the problem? Pentax hasn't upgraded the *istD in 2 years. it is
incapable of capturing many images i have to let pass because the camera is
unable to capture it. the specific capabilities missing are significantly
large capture buffer and much better AF, especially in the tracking of
moving subjects. the low end Nikons and Canons can do both better, let alone
the high end ones, as based on cameras owned by acquaintances of mine whom i
have shot with. even if the *istD works perfectly within its design specs 10
years from now, it would be useless because the camera won't have a useful
function for me by then. DSLRs don't age gracefully, especially when it
comes to software support.

So, if this happens to Pentax I will use the equipment I have until it is
unrepairable and falls apart. This is a long time and until then I can
take pictures just the same way as before.
So, what's the problem? Sure, it would be sad but it's not the end of the
world.
