I think Pentaxians tend to jump to negative conclusions a bit more than they should. Why shouldn't a bigger company want to jump in on Pentax's DSLRs which have AS and have been selling well? See if they can run with it and do even better? But maybe that's just me, looking for silver linings. So, yeah, let's hope it's warranted. Marnie aka Doe ;-) ----- Yes, the news of the past couple of days has been a bit better. But there are two things we cannot ignore: 1. Sparx is now in control. Hoya has given them authority to interview all potential board members. We know what Sparx wants. 2. Hoya is primarily a business-to-business concern. Other than filters, I don't know what they produce for mass markets. Even if Hoya keeps DSLRs, will they know how to market them?
