I think you are comparing apples and oranges, so...
...no not exactly. - > substract 400 Dollars from double the price of a K-1 body only and you are in Nikon Pro-Land
with a Nikon D850 that offers... just more ... in every way. even resolution...
And just that is the reason why i wont buy it. The price for the D850 is absolutely moderate looking at what it offers.
I said i could easily live with 24mp... so it(the imaginative camera from nikon that nearly has the specs i want) certainly would not/will not (D760) have double the price of a K-1... i guess rather app. 500 to 1000 bucks more. -
anyway i dont know where you want to point at, 'cause the deal is i want a Pentax FF with better AF-tech then the actual K-1(also faster framerates), the grip and feel of a K-5II(ease of design- NO wheels with redundant func.)and maybe a TiltNSwivel-Display...
and even if the usual suspects come again and complain about this posting here with the usual sophism, I am pretty darn sure, that loads of people,
that have a connection to their PENTAX brand and loved their K-3 and K-5IIs for what they offered at the time they appeared on the market,
would stand in line to buy such a DSLR ... like... tomorrow.
and since
i am more of a (dont scrapbook me again pls, thats a dm) scrooge guy, I wont complain about its price because it offers performance for the dollars.
FYI, I am a huge Pentax-Fan and started out with the ESII.
Admittedly IQ on the K-1 is pretty darn good, given the resolution, what makes me gnash my teeth when i think about how much clearer and more appealing the pix could look like with a 24MP sensor that is calibrated in the same way they did it with the 36MP-Sen. Despite the fact that the burst mode would be longer and faster with lower res.
i hope you know where I want to point at - if not: your next post will be self-explanatory without reading its content.
next:
When you quote,... dont "pick and poke" ... thats like cutting together an audio tape for false evidence...
