We've had high-end Pentax glass many times in the past, and all it's ever done 
is sit there, gathering dust.

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, which is a very affluent part of the 
world.  Through my job, I've met dozens upon dozens of pro photographers.  I 
have yet to meet ONE who uses Pentax (it sucks to have to pretend to like 
Canon, by the way), even though the majority of them could afford pro-quality 
outfits if they wanted to.  Other high-end stores I've been to in the area have 
had similar experiences.  If I ask why they don't have higher-end Pentax 
lenses, they all tell me they just don't sell.  No exceptions.

It's unfortunate, but that's the market.  You want pro equipment, you go Canon 
or Nikon.
