You're right mohb. They were weighed down with all the payments on their new houses, cars and toys. The opportunity to save for the future ran right by them. :mad:

After watching his video the thing that really struck me was that he didn't say a thing about focus.

Pentax absolutely needs to improve their auto focusing. I love the fact that Pentax is so backward compatible, but if that is hindering truly top notch auto focus then maybe it is time to move to a different mount.

I am not a Canon or a Nikon fan but I do own some of their equipment. The old 5D focuses faster than any of my Pentax equipment and the Nikon F6, a film camera, is amazingly fast. This is all old tech and yet Pentax still cannot out do it. Unless the K-1 is doing things with auto focus that I haven't heard about yet.

I think Tony was actually pretty nice to Ricoh/Pentax.

Tony Northrup is not to impressed with Ricoh/Pentax for going ahead with the K-1 in this video. He does like the camera, in fact he choose as one of the best of the year, he just feels that Pentax may have lost the opportunity to really go pro with APS-C.

Interesting comments on some of the other manufacturers as well.
