Originally posted by noblepa How many people, other than the diehard Pentax enthusiasts who populate these forums, really remember the Auto 110? How many remember it fondly? It wasn't one of Pentax's stellar sales performers.
Agreed. I strongly suspect that the DSLR is a transient form of camera; a micro DSLR .. why? What's more, the Auto 110 doesn't have any real caché in Japan. You can't find anyone displaying them in the used camera stores, let alone like they'd be something worth buying. The LX commands ¥400,000 asking prices .. the Auto 110 is absent. You'll see them with other 'curio' cameras at the used camera swap shows.
I'd rather see Pentax put their resources into a decent mid-range WR/tough P&S.
