If you're into Pentax, then you're a special case by definition. That's not a con but a pro. The black sheep is always the cool one. There's only 3 Pentax shooters in my 20-member photography club.

The difference here is that people demanding mirroless have been tended to by Pentax/Ricoh twice over. There's the Q and the GXR with the new comming K-mount adapter. But that's not enough for them, no, they want DSLRs dead and buried within 5 years. But they would prefer today. And they don't try to hide it too.
So, it's 'them' who are not understanding that lots of people still prefer an OVF over the best EVF possible.
In your line of thinking, this would make the death-to-the-DSLR-crowd: "Xtra Special". (Ah, so that's what the XS in the new DA40
XS stands for.) LOL
