I dont understand, current DA lenses wont work on
FF cameras. I think you are not understanding what
FF/DA is all about. The reason DA lenses can work
better on APS digital cameras is they are optimized
for APS only digital format. There is no conclusive evidence
(yet that I have seen) that any
FF would make much more sense to me, the sensor could
be more than doubled in size for very little
overall increase in body and lens size as it
could/will use same lensmount and K mount lenses. 645 would require
a much bigger, bulky, body and non k mount lenses.
