I would have loved to wait and have Pentax sell me a quality
digital SLR type camera,but the opportunity to by the D1 has 
come before any production by Pentax.
I am in the same boat you might find your self in Cotty,in that
i have to buy Neigh Neigh kon glass for it.(35-70 and looking for the 80-200 f2.8's)
So far i'm able to keep the 
Pentax glass to use.It may not be super quality(35-80 and 80-200)
but i'm happy with it.

BTW any one use the SMC fa 100-300 zoom(f 4.5-6.7)i think.
I say one in a small store today for $359.00 Cand.I have the 
Sigma 100-300 f 4.5-6.7 and have nothing to compare it to.I 
payed slightly less for the Sigma than what they want for the Pentax.
