It would certainly help sales a lot to be backwards compatible, even _with_ a new series of FAJ-645 lenses. For one, it's easier to sell a new system with a wide existing range of lenses and accessories. For another, potential buyers will benefit if they don't need to sell out existing equipment to go digital. For yet another, Pentax wouldn't dare the economic risk of thrashing the whole existing 645 range for a new product. They have truly demonstrated over the years that they are an _evolutionary_ company, not a revolutionary one. Jostein
