Bill Robb hit the nail on the head already. Pentax is continuing its strategy formed through the 90s with its film hardware: *ist Ds - entry level *istD (successor) - prosumer 645D - professional Pentax ended supported with a high end 35mm film offering when it effectively killed the LX (IMO of course).
