If there's a better sensor available than the Sony 24mp used in the NEX7, I'm willing to wait. In the meantime I expect they're working on other improvements too.

As far as FF goes not sure the mass market really wants bigger - I think they'd prefer smaller and better which is what we are seeing happen.

I know there's endless howling about the lack of a FF Pentax, but I think there's good reason to be hesitant to enter that market. Pentax and/or Ricoh need a MILC

The following logic defeats me.......

and Pentax needs a K-r level DSLR far more than a FF.

With the K-30 selling for around $600 (US) and recently sold for £400 (UK) with "WR" kit lens.

At what price should Pentax, a small company remember, charge for a "entry" level dSLR whan competing against Nikon, with the K-30 already so cheap?

Just something to think about!
