I don't think Pentax made that big of an investment at all in the video business. They did have several models out, but some of them were very good ones and not junk! The original PVC-800A, for example, takes very good video that the quality still rivals or exceeded that of a Canon ZR series MiniDV even in low light conditions. In fact, people still want to repair their PVCs due to this reason to this day. Anyhow, one of the reasons so many companies had gone out of business slapping OEM stuff with their name is simple. Their product is a total junk. Their only hope is to cash in on a boom while they can. But you know, no boom ends forever.. Eventually, reality is going to set in and people will realize that they will have to buy a quality product and keep it for years to come..
