Nice translation, appreciate the effort.
I too am wary of Pentax defining themselves by miniaturization. I'd prefer other aspects of their cameras to be the shiny flag that sticks out from the rest (sensor IQ, unique high quality lenses, usability, ergonomics, build quality, quality control, new features, exploring new camera design paradigms, etc, etc, etc).
Even though I was concerned like many others over Pentax in the near-term going for FF/MF mirrorless, at the same time it gave me the hope that Pentax could make something
different, which is (or was) their motto. There was even the chance that a FF mirrorless could be exceptional from the start, blowing the market open and attracting loads of new customers. I'm not saying this may not still happen, but it sounds from the article that this is a dream that is at least a couple years out. I imagine in 2015 Canon and Nikon both will have FF mirrorless cameras on the market, at which time Pentax would once again be struggling against the grain to get market share. Of course Pentax could be waiting for a particular technology to mature to feasibility before they take the plunge, and I could understand that. I just hope that whatever technology they pursue, they're aren't simply following suit. They did this well for 645D, now let's see the same for FF.
Regardless, it's good to see 35mm back on the board. I bought my FF lenses hoping that times like these may come.
Thanks again for the great translation!
