... thats just like... your oppinion man.
lookin at what package PENTAX decided to offer for its first full frame(the K-1)...(high MP, tacky design etc.)... i just wouldnt say that.
It actually sits in the same boat as D800 series... (but not on the best seat)
Canons 5Ds actually has already more than 50MP resolution... its above the D850 resolution, and it was released 2015...
so its obvious the successor of the 5Ds will also have 4K and higher framerates like around 10fps burst.
So why for Petes sake, would any sane Canon user jump ship now? ...dont get it
No, actually Nikon is fishing exactly where Pentax decided to go fishing with the K-1 and its called
The Ocean of
"I-do-want-to-upgrade-to-fullframe-and-I-want-high-res-because-i-dont-know-how-to-hold-a-cam-even-if-either-its-lens-or-body-has-stabilizer-technology-and-when-I-downsize-my-failed-results-no-one-will-notice"
(Some also call it theOcean of: "I-didnt-know-that-high-res-sensor-cameras-demand-steady-hands-because-higher-res-makes-the-slightest-shake-visible-why-the-hell-doesnt-this-SR-tech-help-me")
And since it is a fact that one who can bash out 2000 bucks for a full frame and knows if he wants 1-2 good to excellent lenses he will have to shell out
at least 2000 more;
He/She may also consider a D850 for app. 3000-3400 in conjunction with a used "Nikon AF-S VR 70-200mm 2.8E FL ED" that actually costs(new) about the same as Pentaxes 70-200 lens, whilst offering far superior stabilizer experience beyond 135mm because,
not only that its also weather sealed, additionally to its lightning fast AF-drive the Nikon lens also has a stabilizer built in, that feels like it works like its freezing your hands or respectively your frame.
Keep in mind:
