Has anyone read or heard anything about the status or future of the
Pentax *ist 35mm SLR? It's still shown on the Pentax USA site, but
is no longer in the catalog for B&H or Adorama. Amazon shows it as
"not in stock" and some other sites show the model as "discontinued."
Is there any official word? I emailed Pentax, but no answer yet.
I know the *ist is not highly regarded in PDML-land, but I love my
*ist -- if they really are discontinued, I may have to buy one on
closeout somewhere or on ebay, just to have a backup.
