I just find this little tidbit interesting. Does anyone remember the argument that the K mount wasn't wide enough for a full frame sensor, that only Canon had a lens mount wide enough to support it, and every other manufacturer would have to redesign their lens mounts. Well Nikon's F mount is a smaller diameter than the K mount and they seem to having no problems at all.
