Does anyone know what the current sensor options (presumably from Sony) für those cameras would be? Ralf Sony has a 14.6MP CMOS sensor (in the A450, A550 and NEX-3/5) and the 12MP sensor from the K-x (and A500). There's also a rumoured new sensor or two coming, one at 16MP (rumoured for the Nikon D90 replacement) and rumours of an 18MP one (rmoured in one of the stringer A700 replacement rumours). I'd expect it will be the 14MP one from the A450/A550. It's a proven sensor with almost as good high ISO performance as the K-x's sensor -- M.

Re: 2 new cameras in Photokina
From: P. J. Alling Finally some rumors to stimulate discussion. Oh, hell who'm I kidding, old news really, just from a new source. The only thing I see as different is I expected a K-7 replacement. I think Pentax has been selling a lot of K-x cameras but not a lot of K-7 cameras. I expect the new, (K-5?), was originally slated to replace the K-7 and will when K-7 camera stocks are sold out. So I guess I'm predicting deep discounts on the K-7. Ok, so the K-5 supersedes the K-7, and by inference will be replaced in turn by the K-3 the following year (counting down odd numbers) ... but what do they do after they get to the K-1? -- 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.

Remember, the K7 wasn't marketed as a K20 replacement either.
Replacements aren't always a good marketing strategy. However, k20
production ceased long before the K7 hit the stores, and I suspect the
same thing will happen this time.
