Yes, it was a flop if you're talking about the K-01. But if you analyze a little deeper, the reasons for it being a flop have nothing to do with it being mirrorless.
- It was designed by someone who valued form over function - and the form was very polarizing.
- It didn't have an EVF which is generally considered to be essential for mirrorless.
- The initial price was too high for what it was.
If you're talking about the Q, the sensor was simply too small. I was never going to have any faith in it no matter how many satisfied customers it had.
