And then YOU You did not present it as speculation. You presented it as fact, to end a dicussion (which in itself would have been a good thing :o).

OK. For the source on the fact that the Samsung-Pentax relationship initially was (mainly) about development see the original press release at www.pentax.co.jp. The remark of Pentax on manufacturing was in one of Torigoe's interviews, if I recall correctly. I can to look that up if you wish. The speculation on Samsungs lens manufacturing options were to show you that Samsung has several obvious options besides simple rebranding of existing K-mount designs. I did not say anywhere that any of these are actually happening, so I don't see what I have to prove here. I would welcome opinions on probability or desireability, though. -- Regards, Lucas -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
