Oh, great. Something new for Pentax Fora to obsess about. I guess it's
a hobby.

Perhaps a new lens will be forthcoming for it also: a 4.6-18mm
f/1.8-2.8 lens (21-84mm equivalent) designed for a 1/1.7" size sensor.
Nobody knew what this patent was for when it was announced for a
1/1.7" sensor. Now (maybe) we know!

I have not yet seen if the original Q lenses will cover the larger
sensor, but if they were designed for this eventuality, then perhaps
they do. If so, then the new crop factor give the Q7 these equivalent
FOVs:
