Wow !

I have read through all of your comments and have found them entertaining, interesting and educating.

My reasons for posting the question i.r.o. the possibility of Pentax producing a FF were twofold:

  • A kind, and trusting, friend let me play with his brand new Canon 6D with a 100mm f2.8 Macro USN IS lens clipped onto it. I was blown away by the quality of the images. and
  • I have a cupboard full of beautiful Pentax M and A series lenses from my days of owning a K2, and K1000.

I, and many of you, live in hope !

I've seen your post in another forum that you won't buy a camera without the flip-out screen. It would be very unlikely for the FF Pentax to have one even if it ever comes out from Pentax labs, so you need to reassess your criteria for the camera of your dreams. It's either FF Pentax or the swivel LCD.

Anyway, why live in hope for the next couple of years, if you can buy Canon/Nikon FF camera today? Alternatively, you can always make a good use of your good old glass with the new APS-C K5 II.
