Because M43 has the same registration distance as the K mount.  You'd
need an optical adapter to use M43 lenses properly.

No. M4/3 is 19.25, K is 45.46.
However, lens coverage for m4/3 (Oly+Pana) is much smaller than APS (Fuji+Pentax+many more).

My initial thought is, why didn't they make it m4/3 compatible, so
it'd have a nice repertoire of lenses out of the gate? My feeling is
that Fuji is well-positioned to compete with Oly & Pana in the
body/sensor wars. -T

I'm surprised none of you are talking about this camera:

There was interest on the list for the Fuji X100, and now Fuji are
finally releasing an interchangeable lens version, called X Pro 1,
with (initially) 3 primes:

* 18mm f/2
* 35mm f/1.4
* 60mm f/2.4 macro

Registration distance is said to be 17.7mm and the mount will
accomodate Leica M lenses. It'll have a 16MP APS-C sensor with "RGB
filter [...] arranged in random blocks of 6x6 pixels which avoids the
need for AA filter." I'll wait for the official release to see what
this means exactly. As for price, in the EU it's rumoured to be 1,300
Euros for the body + 35mm lens.

I, for one, am excited about this camera, which to my mind is what the
X100 should've been from the start.

It's going to be announced tomorrow, Monday 9th.
