This seems to something that Pentax also places importance on, as all their cameras are small for their class. No surprise to me that as a group, we seem to be disinterested in bulky cameras. For me, size was a big factor in going with Pentax. I already had a pretty big camera with the 6x7 and 4x5, and couldn't see going to a big 35mm camera and having to put up with a dinky little negative. William Robb
