That's a surprise, isn't it? Sony took them over. They're gonna make a camera that takes K-M lenses. Pentax went in with Samsung, also. Samsung came out with a new DSLR camera, supposedly. It's a Pentax Ds 2 with their name on it (I shoot with a Ds).
I guess it's not about the equipment but about these sensors used in the digital cameras. Kind of like a smaller company trying to compete with Microsoft computer chips. No way.
I hate to see a company like K-M go down. They've been in the photography business for over 100 years.
