Seems to me that our way of thinking about these things has changed some time recently. When cameras had names like "Spotmatic" or "ME" or "Super Program" they were almost one-up .... the company would make one camera until they didn't, and the next camera would be an entirely new venture conceived after a period of time. Now, each camera is part of a series almost from conception .... having a K-70 was almost inevitable once they had a K-30 and a K-50 {although K-S2 did interrupt things}; K-3 was inevitable after K-7 and K-5 .... but Pentax hasn't left themselves anyplace to go next, so it will be interesting to see what they do, and when.
