That's what I think too. If Pentax, Hoya-Pentax, or whoever, were to discontinue K-mount bodies because there is not enough profit in it, why on earth would any other company want to risk the money? Why not just change brands and have the benefit of continually advancing technology by leaders in the industry? If using the lenses matters that much, get an adapter and use it manually, or modify it as other have. Personally I don't think Pentax is going down the drain in the immediate future (6 months - 1 year). On the other hand, I have no idea how long of a future they have. Hoya may take the camera division under their wing, and then if they're not successful enough, spin them off or sell them. There's an infinite number of scenarios that could occur.
