Re: Special Interview with PENTAX @PMA

by the time it ships, very few people will care. only people who still have 
645s will care, and they won't care a lot since there will be the crop 
factor to deal with. there won't be a significant megapixel advantage.

A medium format based DSLR will be similar in all important respect to a 
35mm based DSLR. It can be made significantly smaller than a film 645 
camera which means it could be smaller than "pro" DSLR from Nikon and 
Canon. Considering that it will be ideal for outdoor/landscape shooters, 
as Pentax plans to make a dslr that is not dependent on a power outlet, or 
anyone else wanting cutting edge quality, such a camera makes a lot of 
sense.
