Focus on Imaging - Poor show for Pentax

I was at Focus on Imaging at the NEC today. Nice to get out and geek for a day and some really good presentations, especially an hours talk from Jeff Ascough.. But I have to say it's so disappointing to see such a lack of Pentax gear :-( I knew that Pentax did not have a stand (as they didn't last year) but at least last year you could find Penatx lenses for sale at Jacobs and Pentax fit Tamron gear. This year I was honestly hard pushed to find anything at all with the Pentax name on it. If it wasn't for their historical name you would honestly think it was dead as a brand. I sat through a presentation for the new Nikon D7100 with my friend and kept saying 'Yup, K-5 does that' , 'K-5 has that feature' . It's such a great camera that no one has heard of... Sigh...
