makes sense, thanks... Too bad Pentax doesn't/can't(?) license sensors and digital processing technologies from Canon - they are still the best IMHO. My dream digital body will be something like Pentax MX (or MZ-S) with Canon electronics inside (preferably with 10-12MPix full frame sensor and that aperture thing :-)). Then we could have the best of both worlds - Pentax optics and Canon electronics. End of dreaming.
