Pentax has no real motivation to deal with this problem. I suppose they could generate some kind of mask on the viewing screen, but that would increase the price of camera for a feature that many have never even thought about Most folks do some post processing on their shots, and cropping is a very simple process. As a matter of fact I would rather do this in post processing when I have some time to try different things. i realize that this is not your preferred way of working and I'm sorry it's a problem for you,. What DSLRs do change their viewscreen to compensate for this? Maybe an EVIL camera might work better for you.
