Thank you Adam. The cropped (or DX) resolution for Nikon D3 is lousy 5.1Mp. I hope and wish Pentax would have some manual override mode, allowing shoot at full frame despite of assumed light circle, because some tele-lenses, DA 50-200mm for example do cover larger light circle than APS-C at tele end. It seems to be business practice that cameras come before optics as for Pentax, as for Nikon too. Thank you for your input to this thread.
