Nice.
Metering system from K-7 and redesigned autofocus on the plus side.
Otherwise pretty much as expected, except the 14 bit A/D. I had kinda
hoped they'd use the 22 bit thingy from K10D.
The K10D doesn't have 22-bit data paths, so

It'll be to big and heavy for most PDML'ers.
Nonsense!
It'll be rejected at because it only shoots 1.1 frames per second and
only goes up to ISO 1600. Everyone

Note that max ISO isn't 1600, but 1000. The camera can push 2/3 stop
to ISO 1600, but it's not native.
Nobody buys a MF digital for speed, so 1.1 fps is neither here nor
The major thing it has going for it is 40MP... as always size trumps all.
It's a borderline fringe product. Price is almost right. Sensor size
and resolution are right. AF performance, can't say. Lens
compatibility is good.
The question is, will it sell in the volume it needs to be profitable,

Why
Over the past several years I've scanned and reviewed earlier scanned
images I've made. There is something about them that's undefinable
and draws me to them over my digitally captured images.
I can't say what it is. Possibly a sense of being closer to reality,
in the same vein that I recognize

Why would this
I read that it has spray and steam functions on the baseplate, with
emissions coming from the tripod socket.

Pentax is onto a money maker.
This is kinda the conundrum with camera makers these days. They put as nice
a camera on the market as they can, and people will refuse to buy it until

Looks good. Only drawback I see is I ain't got the money to buy it.
Maybe someday.

I agree with that figure. Given that it's about 1/2 of the MSRP, how
much profit is left?
If Pentax had come out with a 24MP FF 135mm body at $2500 USD, with a
much larger potential market and user base, and a larger future
upgrade potential, which makes more sense?

I think it will attract pros moving up from full frame. It's an opportunity to
go to the next level without making a huge investment. I suspect it will sell
well.
Mere mortals will start getting on board when the first used cameras hit the
market. That won't help Pentax camera sales, but it

I understand your thought process... but I tend to think Pentax could
sell at least 10 FF bodies for very 645D body they'll sell.
