End of 2020

Viewfinder view the same size of the K1; 1.05x mag

Very nice, something which in dslr only days could have been a game changer. Now with MILC people are kind of used to that. Still, very nice!!

Tracking and AF as good as K1 II

As bad as K1 II would be fitting better. I seriously hoped Pentax would step up here. For me, this means I will not go further with the system. I will miss it...

Eye Sensor to dim LCD

Nothing special, but a good feature.

Focus Joystick & main controls on Battery Grip too.

Finally!

Further fea

tures to be announced on Japan site.

DFA* 85 f1.4 (Already Known)

Surely a nice lens.

Early 2021

New Aps DA*16-50 PLM AW f2.8 Fast Focus

Seriously needed!

DFA21 f2.8 Ltd DC WR

Would have been on my watch list for sure, if they improved af tracking. Ltd wr is a good direction.
