I honestly don't think it would help because I think they ALREADY KNOW what they have done and the decision was made with full knowledge. As to whether they offer a DSLR body with full Pentax lens support, that's another decision but if you think about it , they could probably charge a couple of HUNDRED dollars more AND GET IT, for only a $5 part they took away so maybe that's a quick windfall for them if they really need it...To me I would pay considerably more for a camera that had the capability than one that doesn't but of course that DOES NOT mean I think it would cost that much to implement, its just that the feature would add that much VALUE to the camera to me. To some others it wouldn't be worth it so I think offering a RANGE of DSLRS at different feature/price points makes more sense. so far Pentax has really only had one level of DSLR body with same basic specs and functions...WE need more choices...

(was Re: How Pentax Could Survive) Now that is a sane and sensible idea. Perhaps we can start such a petition and submit it to Pentax. Imagine how impressed Pentax Corp would be to receive an envelope from IOWA filled with suggestions from loyal Pentax users from all over the world. I wonder what, if any, impact such a list would have, assuming it was presented in a reasonable and organized manner.
