Yeah I'm not sure what there mindset was on that one. Originally even the K3 couldn't use it. It was not until a firmware update later. The K50 got a firmware update but it was still being sold. I imagine their reasoning was that the camera was out of production. Still the K5 was definitely worthy of an update. Of course that would have taken 3 updates I suppose. The K5, K5ii, and K5iis.
