I was just surfing the net and found some info regarding an announcement from the President of Hoya. He said a press release will be sent out later today. The announcement was on a Japanese web site for about one hour this morning before the markets opened in NYC and is now taken down. I'll keep digging and see what more I can post to confirm this further.
Just one day after closing the deal on the Pentax Hoya merger. Hoya has announced the sale of Pentax to Nikon. Nikon has plans to use the Cmos sensor and SR technology in a new line of affordable DSLR's. Lens mounts will stay the same until the end of the year when all products will be fully compatible with the Nikon lens lineup.
