Well.. I think that seals it.. I was hoping.. nay praying that I'd see Pentax come out with a blockbuster announcement stating that they were actually releasing or working on or contracting out a DSLR body that will accept K mount lenses.
An affordable (comparitively speaking of course) DSLR that will take the K-mount glass I already own. I don't need a "professional" DSLR .. hell.. I don't even think I'd buy the first generation.. I'd wait.. oh.. maybe for the second generation :-) But nope.. looks like it ain't gonna happen. Every dealer I've spoken to has confirmed that Pentax is AWFULLY good at keeping secrets (except from you lot here) :) and as such, I was thinking that the DSLR would become a reality. I had heard rumour, heresay and the general whispers that accompany them. Now, my hopes are dashed. *sigh* I'll wait till the end of Photokina. If there's nothing.. absolutely nothing.. I'm going to say goodbye to the k-mount lenses and the sweet LX. I will sell my soul to the devil.. and end up with Everything Or Something from that company that starts with a C and ends in an N.
