Mpix is more important in low end. It's stupid but it is so IMO.
PS: people moaning about the 25/2.8 pancake from Oly forget that there's a 21/3.2 Limited wwhich is at least as good as the Oly. And I don't think /2.8 against /3.2 is a big deal at all
Thibs,
I maybe wrong but the F2.8 in Oly land is more like a F3.73 equivalent in Pentax country. So we are actually ahead in this but I am not sure about FL equivalents (50 mm for Oly and a mere 31.5 for Pentax). Even better IMO is to comapre the 25/2.8 with the 40/2.8 Ltd.
