You know what I would like to see from Pentax? A compact AW camera with a 1" or m4/3 sensor. It would be a perfect travel\hiking camera. It doesn't have to be an interchangeable lens camera if we could have serious weathersealing. Other than the Nikon 1 AW-1...which was a terrible camera, there is nothing smaller than a micro 4/3 body with large m4/3 lenses attached. I'm thinking something RX100 sized but weather sealed.

it seems Pentax has the resources right now to only do one lens at a time, and no matter which choice they make, it will make one group unhappy. I think that the 70-300 makes the most sense since it will cater to the largest group of folks. Crop users want something that resolves better than the 55-300mm and the full frame users have no modern zoom lens in that range unless you want to spend 1500 for a f2.8 lens combined with a 300mm f4.

An HD re-release of the FA limited line would be nice. The FA limiteds only really have one major weakness and that is flare control. And right now the limiteds are still under production, the plastic-era FA would require a whole new production line since the molds, lens components, and electronics and such are long long gone, Its not like they can just turn on a line that made 20 to 30 year old lenses on and say start it back up again.
