Well, monochrome is both very, very wrong and partially right
Yes, Pentax has experience they can directly translate into a new large sensor mirrorless system; and they're building more of it (e.g. with the K-70's on-sensor PDAF system).
At the same time, they're still missing stuff like last generation EVFs and cheap, compact builds.
If they'll make a MILC 645... it's not entirely impossible, they said in an interview that it makes sense from a technical point of view (because the benefits would be larger, proportionally with the mirror/mirror box' size I guess). But I wouldn't hold my breath.
