Will there really be a big saving selling the K-1 secondhand and getting a KS-2 new? I'd have thought the K-1 would be the better "forever" camera, but that's just me!
I'd agree, the K-1 is compact for an FF DSLR, my K-5 is slightly smaller but once you've thrown it over your shoulder the differences are minimal. Add a bag and some more lenses and the difference disappears. Too go significantly smaller would be a Q or in my case, my GR.
The 43 doesn't really work for me on APS-C but I'd never sell it. I'd struggle for wide enough lenses on APS-C, my widest is the DA17-70, which makes the K-5 similar in bulk to my K-1 with the FA20-35 on it.
