Fisheye lenses are going to be a problem with any APS digital camera. Perhaps the next pentax witll be a 35mm sized sensor. Although an 8mm fisheye would probably give you a pretty good effect, even with an APS camera.

That's your opinion. I've sold a bunch of stock photos, made numerous 12 x 18 prints, and shot numerous magazine articles with my *istD. My clients find it more than adequate. Extremely sharp 144 megabyte 16-bit files are adequate for most uses. Are you shooting billboards?

I think you'll see a new TOL Pentax SLR digital within a year. Once you dip your toe in the water, you might as well go in all the way. And let's not forget that the *ist-D is quite adequate for almost all applications right now. Better will be great, but Pentax has already produced a digital SLR that is decisively topped only by very expensive pro cameras. I think the next Pentax DSLR will be a relatively affordable 8 or 10 megapixel unit. That would be in keeping with how they position the brand against the market leaders.
