Come on Pentax... How embarrassing you don't have a section let alone a few entries to your name!

Calm down guys! What is this up-in-arms-over-nothing all about? Of course there is no entries there as Pentax has not made their pre-show announcement yet!

They will come. And it's better to wait for the D90-A900-5DII dust to all settle before Pentax's turn. I believe there will be nothing ground breaking from Pentax, all the more reason to avoid the days when you know all the headlines would be dominated by those big announcement.

Notice the use of Canon and Sony in both quotes, from the same statement?

In the same way you can't say "I won't drive a Toyota, but unless Chevy gives me the hybrid I want, I will."

Maybe some emphasis...It'll be Nikon, NOT Canon or Sony. Is this sinking in yet? Perhaps you need new glasses.

So, for reference, in 2006, Photokina started on Tuesday, September 26th. Pentax made their pre-show announcements (for the K10D and the DA 70mm Limited) two weeks earlier, on the 13th. Then on the 21st, the planned DA★ lenses were announced. Oh, plus a handful of compacts in August and along with the K10D.

Before PMA last year, starting March 8th 2007, some compacts and more about the DA★ lenses on February 21st (and more details about the lenses on Feb 25th).

This year, they were a little tighter: PMA started January 31st, and it was only on the 23rd that we got the K20D, K200D, new lens roadmap, and again the P&S refresh. But still, there were rumors that turned out to be be pretty good (and especially, the GX20 two weeks previously.)

So, with Photokina coming this Tuesday and no real news from anywhere, Pentax is being particularly tight-lipped this year, at least compared to the past couple of years. I'm not attaching any meaning to that (it could mean so many different things), but there it is.

What do you mean ? Is there a new body being announced other then K-m ? If thats the case would you mind blasting away the news on this forum ? Cant wait for one more day ..
