[Issy]

There are some rumors floating around the web (finally! - albeit in Chinese) that Pentax will announced the much sought after follow-up to the K10D at a press conference on January 24, 2008 - just in time for PMA.

The new camera is rumored to be called the Pentax K20D and will include the following features:

    * Pentax Proprietary 14MP CMOS Sensor
    * 14 bit RAW A/D Processor
    * 3″ Live View LCD
    * Improved In-Body Shake Reduction
    * Body Design Similar to K10D
    * Significant Custom Functions (including AF trimming/programming for different lenses)
    * PC Sync

The K100D is also scheduled for replacement by the new Pentax K200D, which is rumored to include the following features:

    * 10MP Sensor from Sony
    * PRIME 12-bit Image Processor
    * 3 FPS (10 Max RAW; Infinite JPEGs)
    * Larger LCD (3 inch?)
    * 11 AF Points

Rumors for now - time will tell. When there’s more, I’ll keep you posted.
