It basically just gets down to that I've tired of waiting for Pentax.
The 5D is a larger sensor (albeit 12.8 vs. 10) and is FF, therefore likely
less noise at higher ISO. If I haven't purchased a 5D before the new
Pentax is released I'll walk into the store and do some hard (albeit
unscientifc comparisons), bring the memory cards home and look at the
results very closely.
I suspect the 5D buffer and throughput will still be faster/larger also. No
proof for that statement obviously.

Sounds like the new D will pretty much match the Canon 5D in specs. Why
would you want two incompatible systems?

I can see the *ist D and 40mm pancake becoming my point and shoot while a
Canon 5D and 2 - 3 lenses, becoming my main system.

All I can think is what the hell are they thinking, how many lenses at or
around 50 and 70mm do we really need?
