This kind of stuff always makes me laugh. Pentax is a small camera company that releases stuff as fast as it can and still make money. It probably has the smallest budget of the DSLR makers. You want cutting edge, buy a Canikon. You buy Pentax if you want reasonably priced primes and uber-AF is not important to you. I loved my MZ-S 10 years ago but my current K-7 does essentially everything better. (No, I don't care about the aperture thingy.) I'm always at least one flagship behind the times so I'm used to reading about how terrible my current camera is. ;-)
