Thanks, Adam, I bet the lens in Pentax mount would work great on Pentax DSLRs. Pentax will always have a place in my heart, will probably pick up one just for everyday use to carry around, we shall see whats coming out next... an FX sensor, I'd be all in, and pick up all the FA Limited lenses for daily use.
and Yes, D4 is a great camera, after sell all my D3s, I am pretty happy with the D4.
Go Pentax, I am still ruling for you!!!

I hope Ricoh sees this thread and seriously consider to put this into major consideration... I mean Olympus OM-D E-M5 and Fujifilm X-Pro1 are definitely looking great and performing very well as well. Maybe D-LX would be a serious contender, I am not a technician, if they can fit a full-frame sensor in that body, or even an APS-C D-LX would be great... I WOULD BUY ONE IN A HEART BEAT!!!

Good News for Pentax DSLRs... I would hope that Pentax is going into a new direction with Ricoh!
I would personally prefer Panasonic to buy Pentax, and would be great to work out some fancy deals with Leica (lenses) to mount on Pentax DSLRs....

I don't think Pentax should do 1.4X tele, they don't really have fast super telephoto lenses (300/2.8, 400/2.8), only lens can be use the 1.4X is the DA* 200/2.8...
Please no DA* 85mm/1.4, make it D-FA* 85mm/1.4 would make perfect sense...
Don't think they are going to make anything longer than 400mm at this point... I personally think that Panasonic should buy Pentax from Hoya, then they (Panasonic) can start producing APS-C size sensored DSLR under Pentax brand, eventually get to make a Full-Frame system; at this point, Leia lenses would be looking lovely on Pentax systems!!!!!!!! DIG THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bet this would get some debate going hehe

I would consider the new Sigma 120-300mm/2.8 OS with a tele... it's going to be a lot sharper than the Sigma 300mm/2.8

Sigma 120-300mm f2.8 with 2x teleconverter, I've shot this lens with 1.4 tele before, the results were very good, and sharp with my previously owned D700; I sold the lens and tele on FM.com, the buyer was extremely happy with the lens and the results that the lens produces...
You'd be looking at about $3500 or so with OS

D3s is the best camera out there, but the package price is just wrong, I don't think the seller is legit... or must be stupid...

If everything is true, I would definitely get one to back up my D3 and D3s.
I would hope it has 30fps @1080P, and the ISO seem to be reasonable, I don't think they want to kill their D3s and D3x line with the D700 upgrade. 100% view finder would be great, and Duo CF cards... I am not a fan of my previously owned D700 battery door...

I am not going to jack up the price on those, what I am thinking is that if I can get $1500 for the Sliver K-5, $500 each for the 3 DA limited... would there be a market for them on our Pentaxforums?

what I meant that the price went up 200-500 dollars, I dont' think LV has any bags that are base priced, a wallet cost way more than that. There are tons of difference between the fake ones and real ones, even it's used, their bags does not devalue at all, you can find a 20-year-old bag that actually cost more than what they used to be.

with today's economy and weakening of the US $s, thats what to be expected. Louis Vuitton price increased recently for a bit, the price went up $200 to $500 on most of their bags...

I don't know anything about the Canon one, but my Nikon AF-S 70-200mm/2.8 VR II is very fast, very sharp; well, I suppose that sometimes cameras might effect the focusing speed as well, I mean depends on which camera bodies the lenses are on.
I personally think Pentax should come out with a newer version of the FA* 80-200/2.8, a D-FA* 70-200mm f2.8 DC, and price at $1499.99, that would be a great addition for our Pentax Community.
