It would have been better not to have added your two sentences because they simply and absolutely are not true. I, for example, am in the market for a new Pentax DSLR, and I only WILL try to get such a camera in a yard sale or at Ebay for 20% of retail, if it won't have better backwards compatibilty than the pre-production models that we have seen. I only spend real money on new products when they are convincing and not unneccessarily devalued.

Those who will bitch and moan about backwards compatibility are likely the same old farts that wouldn�t have bought the camera anyway, unless it was to be found at a yard sale or on eBay for 20% of retail. Pentax was smart not to design this beauty with those folks in mind. Okay� Okay�. !! The last two sentences weren�t in the article� You can call that my editorial additions.
