I’d be happy with the autofocus regardless. Shooting Grace at the beach 
yesterday in crop mod with my 60-250, I noticed it performs far better than the 
K-3 when focusing on a moving subject. I’d also be pleased with the wheel that 
enables lots of control without going in the menu. The benefits go way beyond a 
full frame sensor and excellent performance. Maybe you need to rethink your 
premise before you write.

I do need to try using the camera in crop mode. The focus points would give (nearly?) full coverage of the aps portion of the sensor.

And, yes, the extra control wheel is very nice.

They've added a whole bunch of features that could be amazing, but most of them have some design flaw or shortcoming that severely limits their usefulness. Like they now support tethering, but limit it to USB 2, which doesn't have the bandwidth. Or the wifi remote control, which really seems to suck.


Do you have a publisher in mind?

Har! There's a reason nobody pays me to write equipment reviews. No, actually, there are many reasons.

I'm starting to write up a detailed review of the K-1.  But I think that I can 
summarize it  in one sentence.

If it didn't have a full frame sensor, and mind boggling performance, we'd be 
terribly disappointed in it.
