I think that Pentax's long-term strategy (if you can call it that) is becoming clear. Overall, they did their development in order of low-end to high-end format. First they did the point and shoot cameras. The 35mm came next (but reversing their low-to-high strategy by releasing the D first). Now the 645 MF is on the way (hopefully). Last is clearly the 67's, which I always thought was Pentax's crown jewel.
