Canon's selling the 5D for about 40% less than the 1D. The Pentax
probably uses the chassis of the 645n and the autofocus software and
hardware from the *ist D/Ds which should cut down on development costs
considerably. Why shouldn't they be competitive.

what makes Pentax so special that it can sell a 18MP for 40% less?

$10K.
