They actually have a logical line up now at least.
Pro: 645D (Upgrade needed. Left to be a lower cost pro?)
Standard Pro model: ? (Sports wildlife etc or a really affordable MF?)
Enthusiast: K-5II/K-5IIs (upgrade needed)
Amateur: K-50
Beginner: K-500
Mirrorless: Q7/Q10
Looks pretty logical to me and one thing I like is how none of the models are crippled in weird ways to promote the upper segment. The different segments are divided by actual values and not artificial ones.
Now they only need to upgrade the enthusiast to make it pop a bit more, decide on how to work out how to sort out and upgrade their top models.
