it can go cheaper, smaller and better built at the $2000 price level. (all things we'd want Pentax to do if it went FF).
Originally posted by normhead Where does MF have left to go?
MF full-frame (645D is a crop), cheaper, smaller, more new lenses, and higher resolution now that FF has caught up it to in MP.

the museum. on the shelf behind glass, and in the hands of dedicated collectors and artists
Originally posted by normhead Where does 4/3 have left to go for that matter.
better EVFs, better continuous AF, more specialized lenses and adapters. m4/3 is just starting to hit its stride.
Originally posted by normhead When you get your FF , don't toss your APS-c. You may discover you want both.
who said anything about tossing out APS-C? it's here to stay, just no longer
necessarily with the added size/weight of a mirrorbox/OVF.
what else can Pentax do with it's APS-C DSLRs besides bring it's AF to the standards of its already established competitors? they can never be made smaller than a K-01, or tougher than a K-5, and APS-C DSLRs already sell for as low as $500. IQ can always be improved, same as all the digital formats, but as a platform, APS-C DSLRs have plateaued.
