“To consult the rules of composition before making a picture is a little like consulting the law of gravitation before going for a walk.”

    I think this is very exciting news. I have been worried about Pentax, and I really want them to survive - they have always made a great product. I had a Pentax DSLR back in the film days and have always thought they deserved a seat at the table. Keep it comin Pentax!clap.gif

    I think it is important that they offer a path to upgrades. I have a K200D and a couple of Pentax film SLRs, and I love the feature set and backwards lens capability. I know Hoya laid off some folks and rationalized a few things, but I too hope they come out stronger and better than ever. thumb.gif

    Just a caution, I had the anti virus at work find and delete two files marked as trojans when I clicked the link to the site listed in the top post.
    On a scale of 1 to 10, my awesomeness goes all the way to 11.
