Actually, recent price reductions in OZ have now made the K200D very
competitive. It can be had for $A700 from a reputable dealer which is
considerably better than the $A1200 (approx) that it was listed for
originally.
I'm still aiming for the K20D but I haven't totally excluded the 200D

True :) Here the K200D is the best price / value machine most of us can
get. Even if the price of the K200D is still high for most people... I

The price is indeed a bit steep although there seems to be quite
differences in different markets: the distibutors may be partly at
fault here.
I read a couple times already that in Eastern Europe, the K200D is
selling like hot cakes. In the US (and other places as well) it is
expensive regarding

The K200D is not enough camera for too much money. Apart from the
weather sealing the Sony A200 matches or exceeds it in every regard
(especially AF and buffer/fps) for around $200 less and the Nikon D80
is roughly the same price while far more camera. It's not a bad
camera, just a bad value (the o
Everything I've heard indicates something below the K200D. A K2000D per se.

Sure they would but I expect Hoya-Pentax to go that route more than before...
A least they do not market upgrade versions as full new versions
(read...Canon-like).
Personnaly, I do not think the K20D needs anything more than what it
has already. But the K200D or an intermediate model would be we

Well the K200D could indeed receive an upgrade for a very good reason:
the base camera is damn good (just a K10D with a couple features
missing) but the buffer/fps really is a joke, espcieally the
ridicullous buffer.
Other than that the K200D is a very fine camera.
On Mon, Sep 8, 2008 at 2:46 PM,
Why do K200D or K20D need a replacement? What Pentax _may_ need is
something lower than K200D or higher than K20D.
K200D Minus could be something like the Micro Four Thirds from Olympus.
Ergo a K bayonetted, interchangeable compact camera :P Like a Micro K.
K20D Plus could be FF camera

According to current informations it would (supposedly) replace or
compliment it between K200D and K20D.

Frankly, the K200D is already low-end enough. The only way they could
go lower on a saleable body without completely crippling the camera is
to simply reintroduce the K100D Super updated with the new processing

Well for what I know (which is nowhere near official, Pentax-Hoya

this time some might want to upgrade their istDS (although doubt we
will see TTL or anything else than pentamirror).
Other than those two issues, it seems a nice
Yep, lenses too.
I have all my shooting needs covered already lens wise. Now I await a
body that will have a decent low light capable sensor in it.
But I'm not holding my breath while I wait for it.

Lenses too? There's some nice ones on the roadmap I'd like to get.
And I've been grabbing all the Pentax MZ-era camera straps that I can

Until Pentax come out with a camera with specs & performance similar
to the Nikon D700, I'm not buying any more of their equipment.

I'd need to know more but almost certainly not. I can't imaging
