Originally posted by Brangdon Some of us question whether that can be done for a reasonable cost. Also, the new mount would presumably require new lenses and mean no new K-mount lenses. So it seems like you've gone to a lot of trouble to court existing Pentax users, without really making them happy.
So much for more K-mount lenses when the new lens doesn't work on dslr K-mount bodies. Moot point.
With an adapter, you get real K-mount lenses, and real mirrorless lenses, slimmer mirrorless body and the possibility to use K on mirrorless.
With this, you don't get any more, but lose the slim body.
