Still not sure if I should get rid of my Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 and get the DA* 50-135mm f2.8.

Hadn't thought of that ... may well keep mine for a while longer then Allso using a Bigma for shooting video sounds interesting
From how I understand it though, the K20D will not be replaced as such .. the next model due around xmas will be a K200D replacement so Pentax would then have a lineup of K-m, K300D (or whatever) and K-7 as the high end camera.

No, digital preview is the setting where the camera makes a picture but does not actually store it (allthough you can store it when needed).
It can be used to check DOF.
Optical preview is the setting where the lens stops down when you look through the viewfinder so you can check the DOF. This is the mode that I use on my K20D.
These are settings that the K10D and K20D allso have.
Well my K10D certainly doesn't seem to have digital preview through the viewfinder, via the lcd yes but not the viewfinder.No, digital preview is the setting where the camera makes a picture but does not actually store it (allthough you can store it when needed).

I know optical preview is through the viewfinder for DOF.

I dont think Sigma would DARE put their prices up again.
I notice on Pentaxforums they are saying price rises of 20% plus on a lot of Pentax lenses in other countries.

What is the rush? Do we need all the function a DSLR gives us now a day?
What if there were no view screen?
What if you didn’t have live view?
What if you did not have autofocus?
What if there was no anti shake?
Would it take anything away from photography not having these functions?
Could I still take a good photo?
Since you have used a SLR without these functions I would hope so but even hint at taking out autofocus and the younger generation (especially Canon and Nikon users who dont even know what a MF lens is) would throw a fit .. and sports photography would just disappear overnight (apparently you cant take photos of football without 700 AF points and mach 1 speed).What is the rush?
