Originally posted by RMabo In the march 2007 article in DC Watch Impress with K D Torigoe and K Tatamiya of Pentax Imaging Business, they did say that they were working on a more pro-oriented body - but specification was not finished yet. I believe Photokina 2008 for the "K1D" (or whatever it will be called). At or above D300 in price. The K10D upgrade/replacement will be less expensive. (Canon 40D/Sony A700).
I think there is room for them all three.
Standard/beginner level: K100D replacement "K200D"
Advanced amateur, semi-pro: K10D replacement "K20D"
Professional: "K1D".
One of my "sources" was Popular Photography- this is a quote from their Camera of the Year article:
"What a year for cameras, especially DSLRs! And as this is written, there are still more to come before the page is turned on 2007."
Now, Nikon, Canon, Olympus, and Sony have already had their announcements- but all Pentax has had is the K100D Super.
