I think that's actually pretty critical.
The viewfinder is the primary difference nowadays between DSLR's and Mirrorless cameras, now that mirrorless has phase detection autofocus on the sensor.
Manual focus is greatly aided by focus peaking and digital zoom, so for DSLR's to maintain their perceived benefit, it needs to really push and maximise this benefit.
Again, nothing here that is specifically FF based, but having said that FF should allow for a larger viewfinder, to match the good old days of 35mm film viewfinders.
Whilst it should be awesome and all, I've personally never been that blown away by the APS-C optical viewfinder, despite Pentax being one of the best of the bunch in this area.
What could be 'different' about Pentax FF?
Decent video would please me.
Real Sensor Shift based stabilisation during video, mixed with focus peaking and maybe digital zoom. Main thing is the focussing and stabilisation aids need to work
during video capture, not beforehand only as presently.
