If mkIV was 4000$ (or more), it would still sell like crazy. Canon (and Nikon) has an amazing and complete system and people will pay pretty much any price to use it. Pentax can't price their products in that range, cuz their system is far far from being complete.

I agree.

I wonder what the K1 sales would be if you removed the Pentax logo, slapped on a Canon one and designed it to fit Canon glass.

Sales would soar...SR alone would bring in many new happy buyers.....until they learned it was really a Pentax and they all committed Hari-kari!
