That's my fear, Will, that Pentax will release a FF and relegate APS-C to entry-level duties. I'm one of those that is in favour of the K-7 philosophy: A compact APS-C DSLR with advanced capabilities. I don't know that Pentax could support two flagships like Canon and Nikon do. In fact, it would be *three* flagships if we include the 645D. I do think Pentax should release a FF camera, but I don't think it should quit making advanced APS-C models either. One way for Pentax to differenciate itself from the pack would be to offer two advanced cameras with exactly the same feature set and controls, and similar bodies; the difference would be the larger one would have a FF sensor and the smaller one an APS-C. None of this crippling APS-C models because the FF flagship gets preferential treatment that goes on in Canikon.
