Steve,
No matter whether there is a mirror in it or not, the camera will be
at least as thick as a Pentax ME to mount a K-mount lens, which
requires an ~45mm mount register. And the lenses are bulkier than they
would be if the mount register were less as a consequence.
The advantage of micr
"Slim" might be the wrong word. Small? Light? It doesn't have to fit
in my pocket, but I'd be curious how small a camera you could build
around a K mount lens.

You will still have the same flange to sensor distance, you can get rid
of the Pentaprism but the camera will not be "slim".

It would be interesting to have slim EVF camera that would take the DA
limiteds. I still like to carry the DS with the DA 40. Make it smaller
with similar image quality and price it under $500 and I'd consider
buying it.

That, and the one at the bottom of the page, were what I was thinking of.

I think Pentax showed some prototypes of this concept at the last PMA
show. I remember seeing pictures on one of the Digital Photography web
sites anyway, though not 4:3 system.

Interesting. There is really no equivalent camera for the role the
Leica RFs played in the film age. (The M8 is not doing it) Maybe this
could. Oly can build a nice camera. I was really happy with the E-10 I
had, although I am less pleased with the images I get from the Evolt 300

As long as you can adapt M and LTM lenses I think it's going to be a
hit. It'll finally show the promise of the 4/3rds format for
super-compact largish sensor cameras. This is the sort of thing a lot
of people have been waiting for, a Leica CL digital. I'd like to see
Oly do a Ricoh GX100-style EVF
Probably most of you heard about the new Micro Four Thirds system. Long
story short: Oly/Pana is working on an interchangeable compact camera :D
I believe this will bring a 'revolution' to low-price segment of
photography by creating a new 'category', the interchangeable compacts
