It sounds to me like an interchangeable lens compatible with two different mounts. Almost as if they were planning a lens with a K mount and a second mounting design, smaller than the current mount compatible with a new series of bodies. Since an APS-C sensor is smaller than 35mm, and the K mount was designed for film, there may be something in the works with an APS or smaller sensor and interchangeable lens. Something EVIL?

Subject: Is This Pentax's Next Camera?


http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1036&message=31252544

Can anyone interpret the language in the patent application? For example, what are:

"annular packing made of a resilient material"

"packing-compatible camera body" and "packing-incompatible camera body"

My five-year-old version of Netscape won't open the images.

Thanks,

Joe
