Bruce Not the kiss of death. If they called it a commemorative edition (LX Gold) I would think differently. But since they call it a Limited edition, I have to think that it is the end of the line for the Pentax 67. A lot of companies come out with a limited edition as the last model of a particular product. Perhaps they want to concentrate on the next generation 645 (digital back anyone?) or the Mythical-magical Digital SLR. Christian

Beyond special aesthetic emulating the colouring of the famous locomotive EF58 61, the only functional change is the ability to set the shutter speed at 1/2EV increment, everything else is the same as normal 67II, according to the description.
