Pentax priced the K-01 way too high at release; and the body design makes it hard to grip; CDAF only; no EVF... all these make K-01 wasn't very successful at the beginning. I guess that is why the following plan was cut.
Ironically, Pentax couldn't sell the K-01, so they cut the plan and put the camera on sell, and it became much more popular. I bought two of them when price was right.
Pentax should continue the K mount MLC. technology is ready: PDAF on sensor, EVF, new AF motor on lens...
