If you look at the range of WR lenses available for Fujifilm, you'll realise. Pentax still hasn't sealed any Limiteds other than the new zoom. They've re-released the Limiteds with new coating, but without weather sealing. I thought they were doing well when they slowly re-released a number of lenses with seals (18-55, 50-200, 55-300, 100 macro), but they stopped doing that for some reason, and never really got to work on sealing their primes. With the slow release of new, sealed lenses it'll be 15 years before we have a decent range of sealed primes.
Also, Imaging-Resource has done a fair amount of testing, and seems to consider Olympus' weather sealing the state of the art. I can't say how much testing they have done of Pentax, but Olympus apparently isn't shy to make noise about the engineering of its seals.

Originally posted by jumbleview I recently accrued PZ-20 and found that shutter button is better compare to Pentax K-5ii and Pentax K-01. It provides very distinctive feeling at which moment camera focuses and which moments shutter starts to work. So yes, shutter button is important.
If I've understood correctly, that's more or less the opposite of what the leaf switch provides. Some early adopters of the K-1 complained that they couldn't feel that point of resistance, and accidentally fired the shutter on a few occasions because of this. On the other hand, that feedback may now have been incorporated.
