I wonder how one can draw such conclusions:
* without trying the camera
* seing anything else than sample (usually uninteresting whatever the
brand) and a picture (of the girl) from internal Jpeg with sharpness
set a -2, custom image settings set to portrait (!!)
* You didn't test AF and probably you didn't read reports of quite
speedier AF specially those with SDM,
* Light type sensor for correcting AF (less FF/BF issue e.g. in tungsten
light)
* You ignore the fact that Mjpeg may mean a whole lot better quality
(at the bit rate mentionned by Pentax) that Panasonic GH1 or Canon
5dii,
* AF and aperture control in video (5dii where are you?)
* That the 'huge' difference between 1/180 and 1/250 is a half stop
(wow, huge). Btw, 5Dii is stuck at 1/200,
,
Ignoring all other features (useful or not for you):
* HDR,
* contrast AF /Face detection,
* built-in level and auto level with SR,
* dampened mirror/shutter;
* fps,
* copyright credits on recorded images,
* completely new metering,
* 100% viewfinder,
* shutter certified for 100,000 actuations,
* stereo sound in video using an external mic,
* AA batteries possibility with grip,
* etc.
A lot of assumptions, never having it in your hands, don't you think?
You may want a bit of a read:

I do not want you to be convinced, but your reaction now and based on
those arguments is baseless IMO.
