The KP is as obviously good as the Nikon FF. Maybe the D750 is a lame crippled down plastic camera, but it at least had average FF image quality, which means it should have had a major advantage of any APSC. But it did not.
My K-3 was also very similar to the Nikon D750. The lw/ph was 100 lw/ph difference, 2700 lw/ph compared to 2800 lw/ph for a D750.
That is simply not a noticeable difference. SO would we be surprised a KP is close to a D750, hardly.
I got into a huge back and forth with a Nikon user here on the forum once. So, I looked at a lot of Imaging Resources test shots before coming to this conclusion. MY conclusion, save a pile of money, get a K-3. His conclusion spend the extra money, get a D750. Sometimes the same people looking at the same data come to different conclusions.
