The K7 is out and looks like it will be a big hit. I am curious what you all here think would be the next move(s) to keep the momentum going and encourage sales of all Pentax models. Here are my thoughts:
1. Market, Market, Market the K7 and the features of weather sealing, etc.
2. Quick update of the K-m to include weather sealing. I know that others will say we need to update the Kx0d. To me, though, it will be a tough sell to have a 30D and the new K7 marketed at the same time. Also, Pentax needs to focus on getting new users interested in the brand again.
3. I would have the K-m include the 18-55 WR with an option for a dual kit with the 50-200WR.
4. I would also have a "limited" edition K-m that includes the 18-55 WR and the 40 mm limited lens. Pentax needs to take a page out of the Tobacco industry and start getting new users addicted to prime limited lenses! Then when they see how great the lens is they will consider say the DA 70mm for children's portraits as opposed to buying a 3rd party Tamron 28-75 or 17-50, etc.
Just my thoughts...
p.s. if Ned is reading this and Pentax likes it, I would be glad to accept a K-7
