Well, you've said only one reason which has not been approved almost over a year, one rumor that hasn't even been confirmed by it self, not even talking if it's actually for full frame.
Others are just benefits (same as bigger VF, sometimes better DR, higher practical diffraction limit), but nothing that indicates that such camera could be made.
Do those old lenses become that bad and unusable on APS-C? Why aren't they expecting/requesting lenses with similar qualities ar APS-C focal lengths.
I believe something like good 30/1.4 would cost less than a full frame body and it would be a better investment.
Canon EF 24 mm F/1.4 L USM, Canon EF 20 mm F/2.8 USM, Canon EF 35 mm F/1.4 L USM, Sony 35 mm F/1.4 G - They all cost cheaper than 5D I or Sony DSLR A900, body only. Some even several times. And they are designed to cover full frame. Look at the Nikon 35/1.8
.
Don't you think much bigger inconvenience is searching unreliable and overpriced used markets for outdated lenses?
No wonder people does not get what they expect or Pentax doesn't respond to their whining, because they are expecting impossible (exaggerating here
). Why not wish for more reasonable and achievable things?
