There's still a lot of mixed messages. So who knows? Highly profitable DSLR's doesn't necessarily mean the kind of camera you and I want to buy. Focusing it's "limited resources" are they key words, IMO. If Pentax had been making money hand over fist since the K100D and the K10D, why do they

Pentax Imaging will have limited resources because Hoya isn't a camera manufacture. Most of Hoya's products are commodities, (Pentax can't compete effectively in the commodity camera market segment, that's why they cut back on P&S), and they want to strengthen high return manufactured goods, l
