Which is exactly what it should be. The Pentax pro camera is the 645D.
It's there for anyone who needs that kind of horsepower. And of course
the Canon top range models await you as well. I would argue that Nikon
doesn't really have anything significantly better. Bigger and perhaps
slightly faster, although we can't be sure of that.. But certainly not
worth a switch. The new D seems to be exactly what most Pentax users
want.

i just wish it were released earlier, like, before summer.
otoh, 21/3.2 DA LTD is a *fantastic* news -- i don't think anyone else
is commited to small, superbly built primes. kudos to pentax!
if 70/2.4 is going to be 1/3 size/weight/price of 71LTD, it's going to
be a winner too.
i just wish they had something like a small and light 35/1.7 DA LTD to
be a
standard lens on D -- 31LTD is just too big and heavy.
best,

I do find it a little sad that the Pentax top of the line will be
underspec'd compared to Canon's middle of the line.
