Maybe they should make a Canon 7D competitor but that would be it. And then simply every two year bring out a new camera to replace the previous one and improve with added features customers asked for
I think that would make me more happy Stefan,although would still like a FF offering.

Good composition, I like the placement of the moon in relation to the gull.
Perhaps it needs a bit of tidying up though? the nails in the post are particularly distracting.

Not really missing, after all I hav`nt defected to the dark side yet, but low light high ISO low noise for a start, higher resolution, larger file sizes so greater cropping ability, but this topic is not about sensor size.
It is about choice, something a bit lacking in the Pentax range, just been reading the announcement of the Cannon 400 mm F2.8, Would probably never be able to afford one, but who knows what the future brings?

Would like to go full frame someday, and it would be a pity to have to replace all of my lenses when i do, thing is how long do I wait for Pentax to get their act together? When I bought my K20 2 years ago I rather assumed that I would eventually be able to upgrade, but stay a Pentaxian. As it is I cannot even aspire to go FF with Pentax, that's a pity.

Jut remembered, I also have the sigma 24-70, probably a bit to late to add that one

I have four lenses covering 50mm, they are;
SMC F 1.7, SMC A 1.7, DA18-55 Mk2, SMC F 35-70.
A bit bored tonight so i thought I would do a comparison,
All shot at 5.6 on Tripod, no other adjustments apart from sizing. The 3 af lenses where allowed to af.
Can you identify them?;

At least I'm happy Pentax don't have a new model for each range every year
Fair comment, and there does at least seem to be more advertising in UK photo magazines, I guess sometimes i just feel a bit lonely being the only Pentax user in a sea of Cannon Nikons
On a recent trip to Iceland I saw literally hundreds of slrs, I think only one other was Pentax.

It would be nice to see the occasional Pentax releases (anything!) article.
