Cant you understand? How many times do I have to post this? THIS ISNT JUST ABOUT A Single green button. This reveals Pentax true NEW terrible philosophy with regards to their product's long term support. The fact is they will drop support of any older products even when it wouldnt cost anything to support it....Why - To force you to buy new products that have the features they are now disabling on old ones without cause. That's not something that doesn't matter for the future and its something they have never done before...
This isnt 8 years old because their top line film cameras always supported K/M.

And neither does much of the list. And it's an 8 year old issue, not a new issue. -Adam J. C. O'Connell wrote: > You don't care about PENTAX PRODUCT SUPPORT > in general?
