Of course it's quite likely that Pentax will make up for the bargain bodies with big tickets on the new lenses. Time will tell.

The estimated prices for a lot of were in the $1,000 range.
Pentax glass with prices more like Canon glass. It is only logical really for Pentax to do it. Although I don't like it personally, I understand it. I bought three lenses months ago anticipating the release of the K10D would raise prices for older lenses. On Bruce's recommendation, one I got is the A 70-210. (The only A I got, however.)
