They could retain the 'Pentax' name as a differentiator for their DSLRs - like Fiji uses the name 'X-pro' and Sony uses the name 'Alpha', and Canon the name 'Rebel' (in the US).

This seems to be what Thom Hogan thinks we should get:

A K-module for the GRX mount would have had the same problems as the K-01, i.e. too deep. Maybe getting the AF module and SR in there would have been problematic too. Would there really be enough demand for such a thing anyway? You can get a NEX for a couple of hundred and play with adapters and Pentax lenses to your heart's content.

Pride of place to the GR - GOOD. It deserves it. I can't remember any Pentax camera creating waves like the GR has done.

Maybe their strategy will be to offer cameras like the GR instead of interchangeable lens mirrorless bodies, and stick to traditional DSLRs for serious photogs. Which would mean keeping the K-mount. Which allows future FF expansion. S'all good. Maybe they can inject some of the GR DNA into future DSLR bodies.

Terrific shots Pete! Love that Piper shot!

Superb - the last one's my favourite, it's spot on. And shooting at f2.8 is a good idea when you have cluttered backgrounds.

There's a very good one on, right now. Don McCullin.

I'm never seen without mine, John.

Algi - yes it's the top model. The top compact camera model, that is.

What, would you rather they had the LS465 as the top model?

I think the female pirate had the same idea, Ken.

Really lovely shot, Alan.

Congrats Tim, it's a great shot!

I do enter the odd competition but that's about as far as it goes...
