I believe the general consensus was that since Hoya took over the Pentax helm, Pentax USA is under different marching orders. Perhaps using Hoya reps? Perhaps Pentax USA having to sign a new import and marketing contract with Hoya? Anyway, the Boss at Hoya has stated that they were going to do nothing to cut back or halt or hinder the Pentax brand of cameras and other optical devices.

Probably the latter. But it's irrelevant. What happens, happens. With the economic downturn, it's inevitable that some makers will go down. And it won't necessarily be the low volume ones.

Reports of sluggish camera sales started quite a disruptive thread some time ago, and have no wish to start that up again, but ... is Pentax cutting back on Sales Reps in the U.S.? Now? Just before the Big Rush? Or is that just my salesperson's rumor to get me to buy the 300* and the 200* NOW, before December 24th?
