Oops, forgot to mention that it's a Pentax theodolite. Well sure, I've 
always wanted one!

Pardon me?

Well what the heck did you think I meant??

There's nothing else worth waiting for at the moment is there?

Maybe a Pentax vinyl skirt?  (tv: you swine, I ached for hours after 
laughing so hard it hurt)

...and is it the long-awaited flagship proctoscope or just another amateur 
model?

For those who have never used an EDM (electronic distancing machine), or
total station sometimes erroneously called theodolites, there are some great
features that would be handy on an SLR. (The one Cotty was looking at was
indeed a normal theodolite). N***N supposedly has distance information
incorporated into it's D-series (and newer) lenses, well an EDM has that
too...only using a laser device to ensure millimeter accuracy. Range is
normally in the order of 1000 metres, although parallax and haze can reduce
this somewhat. Naturally, high-end EDM's have Autofocus, inbuilt computer
data loggers to store shed loads of info, and compensators for vibration.
Pentax are pretty strong in survey and GPS technology, so new developments
of any kind indicated by patents could be applied in any area of the Pentax
product range, not necessarily cameras.

Wouldn't that freak folks out at demonstrations and/or political rallies
though? Honestly officer, I really was only trying to take a photograph
it's not a laser sight or anything.

 From a previous discussion, I think it has something to do with cheese...
