I bought both my FA31 and my FA77 back when I had the K100. They are wonderful lenses, but I'm very glad that I'm not stuck with the sensor performance that was available six years ago. You will note that Hasselblads decouple the lens from the sensor. If the GXR had a module that let me use Pentax glass in full auto, with the sensor performance of the K-5. In otherwords if I could use it as a mirroless K-5, as well as a mirrorless leica, I'd be all over it like a fratboy on a keg of beer. What is the sensor performance of the m module anyways? > > Godfrey > > > > -- > 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. -- Larry Colen [email protected] http://red4est.com/lrc -- 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.
