Get your K1 and for $550, Pentax will upgrade it (including badges) to a new K1II.

How long is Pentax going to stay in business? Almost no 3d party
lenses is not a good sign.

Screw Tamron and underdog Tokina, they hardly represent much in the way of 3rd party lenses. They are the ones who refuse to make lenses for brands other than Canon, Nikon and a smattering of Sony.


I was not aware of any law or rule, moral or legislated, saying that a
manufacturer and/or distributor of camera lenses cannot make economic
decisions. How is that decision causing a negative impact on society.
