How's About a 1" Sensor DSLR?

After aching arms from standing with my K50 and an old Pentacon 135mm lens trying to catch a few birds in flight and then straining my eyes on the dreadful Canon SX50 EVF, the thought occurred to me - why not a 1" sensor DSLR? Only Pentax would be - er daring enough to try. An adapter for existing K mount lenses and off we go!

Of course, I could have used a tripod or bought a camera with a better EVF, but on the other hand, wouldn't a 1" sensor DSLR be fun? I'm sure Pentax could make the viewfinder usable, but they'd have to be a bit careful about the weight.....
