Oh, I don't know. This is the first time I've seen anyone from Pentax mention a camera beyond the K-7 in the lineup (other than the 645D). It looks as though we might see the expected mid-life kicker for the K-7 later on this year. Of course there is all the usual speculation about what this will be, and the whole range of improbable suggestions (such as using the lower-resolution K-x sensor). But that's nothing compared to the predictions as to just what a higher-spec camera body would be. There's the all-too-predictable dichotomy between those who expect (or at least hope) to see a 'full frame' sensor and those who are sure that Pentax aren't large enough to have three separate lens systems. Only time will tell. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
