I kind of ignored this but my interest is in the glass. I have a lot of classic glass. Only Pentax will allow me to use most of it with a minimum of fuss, (because it's K mount of course). If Pentax ever stops allowing the use of my classic lenses I'd go to the manufacturer with the best disposable equipment as opposed to the manufacturer with the disposable equipment that uses my lenses. Two years ago that would have been Canon, now It might be Nikon or Sony. Film Bodies last for decades, digital bodies are viable for only years, (I doubt my *ist-D will even be considered repairable in 5 more years).
