Never is a long time :-) Actually I used to agree with you; the K10D is close to the best I would expect from Pentax. The few minor shortcomings could well be adressed in the mid-life kicker or followon product (be that a K10Dn, a K20D, or whatever). But now we've got that interview (first posted here by Ken) where the same executive who first hinted about the K10D is suggesting that Pentax intend to release a higher-specification K-mount body. Mind you, even if there is a K1D, I don't expect an aperture simulator. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
