I think Pentax would lose more than they would gain by introducing a
35mm-style DSLR that disenfranchised the people to whom they just
sold new lenses.
Look at all the trouble they caused by partially disenfranchising
people who may have never bought a new lens from them at all?
True.
Then again, to repeat myself all over again, with a 16MP FF sensor,
you can still produce the 6MP APS-C-sized images we are familiar with
from the *istD[S|L] - by removing actual pixels via crop instead of
doing a crop you have to do because the pixels just aren't there...
Also, I believe one of Mr. Chong's usual claims is that much more than
6MP with a DA lens is pointless anyway, due to the resolution of the
lens itself, and if that is true, you would loose nothing even when
comparing with a higher-resolution APS-C sensor. But I should perhaps
not assume that you could convince certain people that this is the way
it is...
Maybe they could even produce a larger-sensor camera that could
automatically recognise the current DA lenses, and automatically
disable the pixels outside and APS-C-sized region at the centre when
one is connected? Just a thought...
