Pentax has already been snatching up pro photojournalists. To me the K10D replacement and pro level APS-C or full frame camera (if there is one) should aim for that market; photo journalists, wedding photographers and general "on location" work.

From there in a couple of years they could start moving into the area of medium format digital for studio use.

You are ignoring their need to DELIVER on the lens roadmap, and get 3rd parties to support
their SDM feature.
