God damn it! My reaction is visceral!
I suppose 14 megapixels, a bigger screen and live view is nice, but what I have in the K10D works great for me in the digital arena and since I have two of them, I won't be buying to "upgrade". Period! Even if it came out at the same price as the current K10D! These cameras are not works of art in themselves ala the spotmatic, MX, LX, etc., and so will have the life of a computer. They'll be no such thing as a "2005 model", as bargain old model on sale will be marked "circa 10:30 AM". The handiest camera size (physically) for me is generally about the current size of 35 mm cameras. This means that the available space inside the light box for a sensor is about what we call "full frame". That's the sensor real estate I want, and It's the only real estate I'll buy from now on. For a full frame at ~15 megapixels or better body from Pentax I'd pay ~$2500 . If Pentax can't make it available in the next year or so, you may well find all my gear on ebay as I build the capital to buy the bodies with the full frame sensors I want and the lenses to go with them. Sh*t!!!!!!!! They can put a K20D up their butt to look for polyps!
