Originally posted by rawr Some of those features are in the 'nice' category but not really that important for a Pentax FF. Like a touch screen, and the two tethering options.
The whole shopping list of options there almost needs a quiz of its own.
True. I threw in touch screen because I think it will soon be a "must have". Also, we're so used to touch screens with everything else, that it makes sense - plus, with touch-screen we can get rid of many of the mechanical controls and buttons - all areas that need to be weathersealed. Look at cars, for instance, that now seldom have mechanical window winders.
And yes, we can debate the wish list at length, but I'll leave it to you to set up a wishlist poll!

It just a polite, diplomatic way of saying we might or might not be thinking/doing anything about a FF. It will all depend. I do not think that Ricoh would specifically, take into consideration what some Pentax fans want, but guide themselves through a marketing statistical analysis trend, by the nitwits running the show.
Well, I have had them confirm to me, personally, that they are working on FF. Working on it, and bringing it to market are two different things though. I like to think that they care about their market and, lets face, it, we are a pretty real market!

I will certainly keep my APS-C kit though.
I agree.

I agree. I'd like to keep my K-5, if only as a back-up camera.

Originally posted by monochrome I'm probably in because I have enough FF lenses - the K-3 is awfully good though.
Love your signature!
