I disagree. I think they decided since they don't have a BabyD to show at PMA, that they better do something to fill in the gaping hole before all the water runs out. The *istD is in the same class as the 10D Canon and Nikon D100 not the 300D or D70.
Dropping their price seems a very odd move to me. If a BabyD is not very far off, they will have to price it even lower to not cannibolize their *istD sales. Nikon has a similar problem with the D70 being spec'ed the way it is. -- Best regards, Bruce Friday, January 30, 2004, 2:01:04 PM, you wrote: JCOC> I guess even Pentax decided it was "overpriced" in todays market.
