So I read on a website somewhere that someone said that Pentax might be releasing a new DSLR body. They wrote it would have a whopping 14.6 MP sensor with a burst up to 3 frames per second! They might be going from CCD to CMOS.

Newer autofocus and SR system supposed to be included here too. We'll have to see how improved it is really!

My guess, if this is accurate information, this would probably be the K10D successor.. so I'm guessing it will be named the K20D!

Also heard a rumor that Full Frame digital is *right* around the corner!!!

Yes. The FF rumour has been going for a considerable amount of time, sadly.

Yes, but it is a long long way to that corner.

The size of the corner was never mentioned.. doh!

Mostly posted for fun due to all the other future rumors, why not past rumors? At least those are accurate..

Two weeks ago's past rumors said ks1= entry level= low specs. Some still say it! Something old, something new, something borrowed & comes in blue, now that's a safe Pentax rumor

Full Frames are so passé... It is all about the Full Format these days.
