So am I. The 8 Megapixel model of the other brand is now much cheaper than what I paid for the ist D 1 1/2 years ago. I do not regret that I paid this money but I want a comparable body from my brand soon! And if there is no clear indication that there will be one in the forseeable future then I don't know how to convince myself to stay with Pentax. Lenses, for sure aren't a plus for Pentax either, these days. It took me quite a while to get hold of a FA 2,0/35 (no longer available new) and a FA 2,0/24 seems to be equally rare. I have meanwhile bought my second Sigma lens and I really didn't want to do that...
We all want to believe that there is a future for Pentax but what is it that we base this upon? The roadmap? I can make this up in 1/2 an hour. The 645 D mockups? ... The other brand has three different shift & tilt lenses to choose from! And there is a 2,0/35 available new ... but there also is a 1,4/35 if you like this better... Yes, their cameras are ugly but still... Sven -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: William Robb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 25.
