If the 645D actually exists at this point, other than in our wildest imaginations, I'd be surprised. I don't see how Pentax could sell one for less than a Canon EOS 1D and make a profit, and certainly not with a 36MP sensor. How many here are in the market for even a $7000 USD camera? That's the end of my speculation. Time would be better spent practicing the craft of photography than speculating, which will have no bearing on what happens.
