Two shutters, one 35mm, one 645, the 35mm stacked behind the 645 shutter like the inner jaws of moray eels. They'd have to be able to move relative to each other in complex ways. > There used to be no way to use K-mount lenses on the medF cameras > because of the moving parts in the mirror house. > > Theoretically, LiveView could change that, but it would require that > the MedF camera is entered into a special mode first, where the mirror > is constantly up and thus cease to function as a SLR.

I think the alleged new DFA lenses, if real, are a dodge against the MF/APS-C format decision tanking plus a way to generate buzz. And/or to get various forums to shut up about Pentax's incipient doom. It's possible that Hoya are willing to rebadge the Samsung full-frame as a Pentax, or that it's still co-development for that camera, too. But I don't think that's the way to bet. -- Graydon -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
