Very true.
I think the new FF probably has a lot of interesting features, other than simply being a FF K-mount device with a viewfinder.
From time to time before launch, the website could hint at each K-1 selling point or innovation:
- week 1: respecting Pentax tradition [cue slideshow of Pentax history, LX, 6x7, 645 etc blending into shadowed FF body];
- week 2: wide lens support out-of-the-box [cue slide-show of full-frame compatible lenses, old and new];
- week 3: big bright viewfinder, with secret Pentax tech inside [slideshow of early spotmatic viewfinder hump, 6x7/645 viewfinder hump, peek inside and out of the new FF viewfinder];
- week 4: a great sports camera [cue slideshow of football, ski jump etc scenes, glimpses of great new AF technology, high fps];
- week 5: a great field camera [cue slideshow of landscape scenes, wildlife shots, flippy screen at work on tripod, water drops on side of camera body];
- week 6: great for weddings and low-light [cue pix of smiling bride and groom in dark church interior, image crops showing great low-light low-noise detail of bridal veil, image of new BSI sensor],
etc.
They could progressively do a dozen of these on the website right up until the day of the launch.
