Reading the specs it seems to me the migration has already
occurred...and in the opposite direction; that is, K-7 technology has
migrated to the 645D.
While Canikon normally trickle down their techie goodies from their
$8k bodies down to their $1k bodies, Pentax has decided to think
differently, as they always do.
Good? Bad? Who knows... Oh, wait, Ken knows, and it's bad! :-D
Hopefully next time around us little guys will inherit some awesome
technology from the big brother.
