Maybe the successor to the aborted full frame MZ-D was to be a cropped 3-4MP camera as was thought here at the time the first one was pulled. Maybe Pentax recently realised that this would no longer be saleable either. Sigma only get away with it because they have Foveon. A 3-4MP cropped bayer for £1500 just wouldn't sell very well these days, so maybe they had another aborted project they have to recover from before they can come up with something. Let us hope that when they do, the same problem doesn't happen again.
