The more interesting question will be how does the Sony A900 (Strongly rumoured to be FF, with a lens line to match) handle SSS (SR). It could be a real issue with wides. Auto-crop isn't really new, Nikon introduced multiple crops with the D2X's HSC mode, and both the Sony A700 and the D3 have multiple crop modes (16:9 10MP for A700, 4:5 10MP and DX ~5MP for the D3).
Note that the D3's quite low resolution in DX mode, really only a crutch for those whose 24-70 f2.8's and 14-24 f2.8's haven't shipped yet. -Adam Roman Melihhov wrote: > Weird subject but what I wanted to say is that perhaps DA lenses owners > shouldn't worry all that much about future compatibility with full-frame > pentax DSLR's. > > Like Nikon D3, future full frame Pentax cameras would automatically crop > images to effective light circle of DX (for Nikon), DA (for Pentax) > lenses.
