Yes, it would be sad and quite frankly a bit strange as Pentax usually commemorate such events. They even celebrated the 20th anniversary of the LX with a black titanium version. The 60th Asahi anniversary with the original LX. Their 75th anniversary with the Limited edition Z-1 and a silver titanium LX. The year 2000 with a Limited finished LX. The 10 million sold slr with a gold edition of the LX. Therefore, I certainly think Pentax will commemorate the 50th anniversary for the Asahiflex; the 50th anniversary for japanese slr production and 50 years of Pentax slr production. This is quite an event. Lets hope they will make a new version of the LX. Pål - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
