Indeed, it's precisely formats like APS-C and FF who require most lenses - for no other reason that the market is expecting so. Unless it's a niche product - are you saying Pentax will dramatically increase their market presence by limiting them to a niche?
By the way, the X Pro1 couldn't make into the top 20 best selling cameras, in Japan. It was beaten even by the K-01 (considered a failure by many here). Should Pentax follow such an incredible success?
No, the market for a professional quality FF EVIL is an almost nonexistent niche. If it weren't so, then Sony (for example) would've preferred to make such a higher margin product. Also, I can't accept that a MILC would be better for the professional market than a DSLR; in fact, isn't the size advantage pretty much irrelevant?
I'm sorry, you can claim as many times as you wish that there's a "very strong" market or whatever, but you cannot convince me - unless you'd be able to actually prove such bold claims. In the mean time,
in our little poll the DSLR has a strong leading.
Pentax has a better CDAF than Canon's hybrid AF system, by the way
