so if that is the case the sigma and tamron story dont add up as they both say that pentax dont sell enough units to warrent it Quote:
so how much off the market have sony
Virtually none, because they don't really pursue the DSLR market in the same way as the top three. I've seen these stats as well and it's very encouraging that Pentax's market share has increased significantly. Well done Pentax.so how much off the market have sony

but they will put the mounts on to the lenses that will fit sony that as a lesser share than pentax

Is there any evidence for this? Pentax has 6.7% (up from 4.5% last year) of the DSLR market with Nikon and Canon splitting the difference, so do you really think there is a conspiracy? The reality is the market for large telephoto & zoom lenses is quite small so Sigma and Tamron don't see a large enough demand from Pentax users to warrant the specialised production of K-mount lenses. If Pentax become say 20% then maybe things will change. And that could happen.its all a load off bull
