    Thanks for getting the ball rolling on this new Pentax, James.
    I read the Photokina report yesterday but am not clear on whether there has been a change of the sensor compared with the K10D and K20D.
    As a K10D user I understand that the relatively slow AF with Pentax Digital SLRs is related to the sensors.
    Quite a gray area for me.
    Fast AF for BIF is a high priority for me.

    Thanks James.
    As still a fairly newcomer to digital have not understood relationship between sensors and auto focus.
    Just found this on the web which might help raise the mist for others like me. !!!!

    Sensors?

    Imaging sensors or AF sensors?
