I went to B&H today looking for a case for the Optio WP. None of the 3rd party cases fit properly - the WP is too long - so I went to the SLR counter to ask about a custom Pentax case. While I was there, I asked about the black 77mm Ltd., which the website said was still out of stock. I then decided, knowing Pentax' supply issues, that it was better to have a silver 77mm than none at all. So I walked out with one.
I'll buy the black one if they ever get it in stock again, but I'm not holding my breath. Sorry, Herb. Amita
