I personally couldn't give a hoot who makes the body that's compatible with my lenses, I lost my loyalty to Pentax some time ago. If the D800E was Pentax mount compatible I would have one now. I have a big kit of old and new lenses (mainly 3rd party now) of which many are 24x36mm frame capable and I would like a body to suit. -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
