Thanks to all for your interesting insights. It seems to me that: - Pentax seems firmly committed to 16x24 format, although these digital days are difficult to predict (we seem to have already forgotten the Hoya merger and its possible implications).
- Yes, If they ever decide to go 24x36, they may provide a way to use the DA lenses...but it must be a really brilliant lens since you won't take advantage of the full capabilities of the body. - I was confused by the evident vignetting that the 18-55 shows on my MZ-5n viewfinder. In other cases the effect may be more subtle and I forgot about the non full coverage of the viewfinder that would prevent it from being noticed...ah, and I didn't want to ask Godfrey to shoot a whole roll just in order to check this ;-) Anyway, since I don't think that I am taking full advantage of my Ds, I still don't think on going for the K10D. This means that I may invest in a good lens instead so...please Godfrey, keep providing us with you impressions about you new prime.

I'll be shooting with the DS and K10D for a long time to come. I buy lenses that will be optimized for this format, 16x24 mm. If I buy something with a different format, I'll buy the lenses that are optimized for that when it happens.
