Well, as the resolution on the K-1 in crop mode is approximatly 15mp
you've already got your wish. The K-5IIs...
The K-5IIs has different buttons, a different UI, the sensor is several
generations back, the autofocus is several generations back ....

We had another round of exams at the dojo yesterday, two nidan (2nd
degree black belt) and one sandan (3rd degree). I was shooting with
the 28-105 on the k-1 and the 28-75 on the k-3.
I'm in the middle of the long slow job of processing the photos. But,
I've noticed a few things. First of all, in full frame mode, the K-3
is just too slow for "rapid fire". In crop mode, it is noticeably
slower than the k-3, but definitely fast enough. However, when the
action really heats up (like in randori where several people are
simultaneously attacking one person), even in crop mode, the buffer on
the K-1 is just too small.
On the flip side, even in crop mode, the photos are a LOT cleaner than
the images from the k-3. I wish it were possible for me to just buy
some larger ram chips and solder them in and the K-1 would be the best
Pentax crop sensor camera by far.
I find myself wishing that they come out with a new top of the APS
line which is basically a K-1 with an APS version of the ff sensor,
and a bigger buffer, with all of the buttons and other UI just the
same so that my fingers don't get confused swapping between the two
cameras.
