I agree. As long as Pentax can survive doing this. Thats the clincher.
If it can, then I am happy with this approach. If you look at the
Canon forums, there is alot more bashing going on than on Pentax, even
accounting for the scale of the sales. I dont know exactly what the
reason is, but I would speculate that it could be that Canon is coming
out with cameras at a rate that allows too many bugs left in the camera
design. I do give them credit however, for being very responsive to fix
many of those problems in subsequent designs, i.e. the backfocus issue
with the 10D, or the noise/banding issues. Now if only Pentax would
listen to us. ;)

Pentax has always been a conservative company, even when they were a
leader. I'd not expect a Canon-wunderkindakamera, but some definite
improvements to what's now offered. For many people that will be plenty.
But that's the way it always is. So many people bemoaned the istDS
variations, but the camera seems to be a good seller. It seems that some
people are hoping that Pentax will go head-to-head with Canon and Nikon.
That, imo, would be a bad move. Pentax should define and know its market,
and make it's cameras very appealing to that market.
The possibility of new and more "Pentax-like" lenses is of great interest.

D200 and whatever Canon introduces this month
