I've pre-ordered in a couple of places. No one has asked for money down. They will charge the card when the camera ships. Not a problem. I think Pentax is being very up front about this. I applaud thier handling of this release. Obviously, the camera is going to be in great demand. They may not have anticipated that, but they're handling it well. Kudos to them. Good news for us.
