My impression when I had the K-1 was that the optical image size of the crop area was similar to what I got on my crop k-3. I have a Sony A7rII and I have yet to shoot in crop mode. I may eventually but I can’t compare results for that reason. Even when I did have the K-1 I was mostly using ff or near ff glass and cropping only in post.

Interesting - by optical image size you mean the size of the viewfinder image? Of course with an A7 you would have a full-size (if possibly lower resolution?) image in the viewfinder.

Yes for the K-1. Not sure one way or another on the Sony - I must remember to test it. But of course that impression may be off. I know a 35mm like my old PZ-1 has a larger finder than my APSC dslr systems.

When we k3iii got usb c and others already connect with lan cable...

I dream of having that lens collection holy cow. That being said, full frame 36 megapixels is amazing and would make full use of your amazing lenses.

My current camera for work is K3 and still have K20D K10D that woking well for small print.

I shoot most corporate, editorial, portrait, headshot, boudoir or maybe food for work... The DA14, DA40, DA70, FA100 can cover 90% of my work needs.

I have try some FA lens in a K1ii and result CA / purple fringing when stop down even one stop... kinda upset.

My question is should I just go for K1ii enjoy the FF but need to fine turn every photo CA / purple fringing etc/, or go for K3iii and build my DA line up?

It's very headache in real I hope got some input here... many thanks.

The itching is not satisfying the tethering support of the current setup... no cable support and using wifi eye-fi (already dead) solution to mac computer

FYR: The K1ii in my area is USD1700

Holy smokes that's an awsome collection you have. However I can't answer your question but if you are happy with the apsc iq, other than noise than I would go for the update a k3. If you feel like your missing something in your photos the k1 might help.

K-1ii all day long normally but you're used to APSC so I'd go for the K-3iii and pick up a K-1 on the marketplace. Reasons being that the K-3iii will hide some of the deficiencies of your A's and Fa's whereas the K-1 will quite brutally expose them.

I wonder if you tried the K1 with lens corrections on if you would if been happier, or maybe you did.
