I like my K200D a lot, I'm not sure it's inferior to the 10 as it carries features over from the 10 and uses a new sensor.

Menu wise it's the same as the 110D pretty much and from talking to my dad who uses a 10 is close enough to the 10's too.

I'd say 50mm manual PKA fit Prime.

I think the short wide angle option is a good one too. I'm guessing light shouldn't be an issue to the wide 12-24/10-20 types seem to make sense.

Out of interesting what about the 14mm prime? quicker lens and fits in with his current lens nicely.

You may get your wish, Pentax have just applied for a patent referring to medium format cameras, so keep them crossed
Indeed, I wonder if Pentax will, rather than going for a full frame 'pro' camera instead say Pro = Medium Format and slot a camera than can beat the CanNik pro cameras by offering vastly better images in a package overall of comparative size.

Limited's are on my list too.. especially since I have the Silver D200D - would look lovely with a 77 limited.

Funny how I bought a brand new Pentax from another well known national camera store ( not jessops funnily enough ) only the other week. They certainly don't seem to have stocking issues.. well apart from the cash back deal making Pentax's sell better than hot cakes.

Pentax' biggest marketing problem is the don't change the lens fittings often enough - no built in redundancy; they only sell things once
That's a BIG plus and selling point. Being able to upgrade bodies without worrying about lenses is a huge asset.

I think the K30D will be a full frame camera sitting above the K20D in the range.

Improve the live view as a selling point mainly and thus end up with a 4 camera range.

If the 20D's live view can't be improved via software then introduce a K25D at the same time with minor enhancements to software etc.

ahh ok - so effectively the P30 was an A3 minus motorwind + manual mode.

P30 was the successor to the Program A I believe. It has Program, Ap Priority and Manual modes and as such is a nice handy little camera. Definatly worth using.
