Originally posted by robtcorl I don't know, I think K-Somethingelse has a nice ring to it.

I am certain the K-New is an awesome camera, hociR notwithstanding.
All Pentax cameras are awesome, film and digital.
But I own three Pentax DSLRs, a Ricoh film camera, and a Cambo 4x5.
Here is the thing.
As most of you know, I also have a lot of machinery, a motor grader, two tractors with an assortment of implements, two pickup trucks, a jet boat, fourteen Datsun Z cars, and a 32 foot enclosed trailer.
When I was looking for the second tractor, Mrs. Racer I could only have one, and would need to get rid of the other one.
Well, I still have that old tractor, and I did add a newer one.
As my camera fleet has grown, she hasn't said anything, but I think it goes without saying, and even lusting after another camera might get me the cold shoulder.
So I will not buy a K-Whatever.
But I would encourage anyone looking for a great APSC prosumer camera that offers great features at excellent value to consider it.
