Trick or Treat--enjoy the Nikon forum...by your own admission--NIkon does not support its legacy lenses in full....as we all know many Pentax legacy lenses use banned chemical coatings no lomnger available and the richness and tone of these lenses on modern equipment often produce great results....I switched from Nikon to Pentax many years ago--Pentax, despite being bounced from several holding companies has proven to be a reliable and well-built camera, reminiscent of my Leicas. Technology is great, but how you produce the images is just as important. Brady's photos of the Civil War using remedial large wooden field cameras and glass plates are often majestic (tragic) and some of the most compeeling images made in the history of photography.
This is a Pentax Forum. I am a Pentax user and I support the brand regardless if its market share, Example: Honda's market share compared to Porsche is overwhelming, but I can tell you which one I would prefer to drive...

4k video would be nice though.. if only for cropping or panning.. get those long, Ken Burns style documentary pans.
I rarely if ever, use my cameras for movies...if that's your goal, then get a point and shoot and enjoy yourselves. I don't want my quality camera to be compromised as a jack of all trades..Leica added video to its M-typ 240 and regretted it by creating the M10 without video 3 years after the M-240 was released. Why is that? well, I guess 4K short videos can be done adequately on a smart phone, but large still images are much harder to produce...Better yet, buy a video camera that takes stills but it won't be a pro-am DSLR...
