Well, that's a given, since Pentax produces less than 10% the amount of SLR's as Nikon or Canon per month. K100D is around 13,000 units a month, the Canon and Nikon low-end bodies are around 100k units a month. Pentax is a niche brand, we all know that. But they've got a heck of a lot more interest and sales today than they did two years ago. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
