There will always be a kit lens. While I understand and accept that existing owners will already have a multitude of lenses, there will be undoubtably some new users, This is the only way to approach the market, because if they only get existing pentax userd, or target at exusting users, let's face it, they have failed totally. They need new users, whether novices who take the K200 reported at 10 mP but probably less advanced and with more "easy to use" functions like landscape modes etc. or for more advanced useers who know how to make a camera work, and need or prefer more control themselves. The latter will take the K20
It wil be more important to see how they have packeged the bodies with more lenses accessories and flashes etc... I.E. the whole system approach.
