The Photo division is 50% of Pentax. I remember reading years back that only 10% of 
Olympus was photo related. For Canon the number is in the 10-20% region; probably 
similar for Minolta. 
If the Olympus numbers are for the whole company, the camera division have probably 
little to do with it. For Pentax, their photo division is probably going to have an 
impact on the numbers.
