I'll be keeping my K20D with FA and DA primes, I've no interest in the K-5 as the ergonomics don't suit me. If they go EVF I may buy a second K20D body but in reality I'll probably buy into the Nikon system. They really need to do something and fast judging by the number of Pentax users that seem to be selling kit on the various forums.
All the good work that Pentax put in over the past 8 or so years seems to be going to waste as Amazon, Jessops and others appear to be selling off stock and not re-stocking Pentax here in the UK.

Thanks John,
Personally I am too old now to be thinking of jumping ship only to sell all my fine lenses for a pittance,50 years ago I was taking pictures with my grandfathers Rolleiflex TLR on 120 film through zeiss lenses and was gagging about the sharpness,sometimes I wonder about progress!the rollei is still perfect with no faults probably nearly 65 years old. PS. If you keep an eye on these Pentax items for sale you see that 80% of them do not sell and just keep getting re posted!
