Originally posted by Northern Soul I think Pentax think it will make them money. That's what they want to do.
With the money they might start making some of the more esoteric items you mention again.
Lack of a TC is poor though, I'll give you that - especially given the lack of really long glass.
A DA-TC, wow, that would be awesome!!!
I wonder if Pentax has any idea how much their used stuff continues to sell?
I wonder if Pentax has any clue the Pent - up demand as we wait patiently for things we need.
The Q. Did it take a new design team? Were additional offices set up at corporate to handle the new project? What part of manufacturing was used? Was an Optio production line taken down for the Q?
Any resources that went into the Q could have been used elsewhere.
Even if there *is* a market of the Q, what about all of us that wait for announcments that come ONCE A YEAR!?!
Does anyone at Pentax even read this forum?
