I guess Keith just doesn't understand the reality of pentax not fully supporting the K mount without cause. It is a first in their history and goes against everything they always stood for in supporting legacy products when possible. They certainly could have fully supported K/M very easily and havent. This isnt a MIGHT HAVE, they have done this. I would not put anything past them after this.

Yeah, and the world might end tomorrow. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it... All this serious _supposition_ (=guessing) on what Pentax MIGHT do tomorrow, and what Pentax MIGHT be thinking of doing next year, and what Pentax' future lens design manufacture plans MIGHT be... Geez! All without a shred of tangible, valid evidence, too! Soothsaying without a license no less! "What if's" are in the realm of questions for story-telling sages. keith whaley mike wilson wrote: > Hi, > > J. C. O'Connell wrote: > >> they want to do on anything.
