Yeah, they can't compete with those prices. Pentax doesn't even sell their point and shoots at Target, I'm sure they don't make nearly enough for something like that.

I've been finding those kinds of deals quite often lately, it's not digital so no one wants it. On a related note, I just got back from visiting friends who just bought a \new digital SLR. Target was selling the Canon Digital Rebel XS with the 18-55 IS kit lens for $250. A price that apparently was too good to pass up. Kind of surprising since my friend was a die hard OM-1 film user. Oh and he picked up the Canon IS 70-300 Kit lens for an additional $200, Target tossed in a $100 gift card, and Canon branded kit bag to carry the camera both lenses and a few odds and ends... Just to bring it back on topic, I don't see how Pentax can hope to compete with that. Brendan MacRae wrote: > I found a late 80's~early 90's K1000 at Goodwill the other day.
