Yes, about 30 years. If you're serious about fast action sports or wildlife photography then I'd say Pentax isn't for you - the choice of high quality (a.k.a. very expensive, regardless of brand/fit) lenses over 300mm is limited and the continuous AF isn't as good as Nikon/Canon. If these factors are not important to you, then go ahead and get a Pentax. They are very good for general purpose photography, the backwards compatibility of the legacy lenses is unrivalled, and don't confuse the user with a whole bunch of features that you'll never use.
