1. They did leave FD bodies in production for a few years
( most likely sales fell off so it wasn't economically feasable)
2. I have said this over and over again - CANON USERS GOT
A NEW AND IMPROVED MOUNT when EOS came out - THERE IS NO NEW AND
IMPROVED MOUNT on the current pentax DSLR bodies. You are an
Idiot if you cant understand this simple fundamental difference
Between what happened with Canon and what happened with pentax 
DSLRS.

You need to post consice thoughts in a consice and understandable manner

if you want to be understood. I can't be made responsible for 
misunderstanding your vague drivel.

It's a good analogy in that it highlites one company who completely 
screwed their user base by dropping support for millions of lenses.
There was nothing to stop Canon from either making the EOS cameras 
adaptable to the FD lenses, or leaving a couple of FD mount bodies in 
production.
Nothing except corporate greed, anyway.
