I think it's pretty clear where pentax is heading to. No FA limited lens in the next two years...

There is the LEITAX option to mod a lens to pentax mount.
Zeiss Contax MM surpasses the Zeiss ZK range.
Could anybody offer some (piece of) advice regarding which Contax lenses would a pentax (K5) owner need?

IMHO:
if she wants a portable, nice new toy -- nikon 1
if she wants a FF -- nikon d700
else -- pentax K5

Thank you again Laurentiu. It seems obvious to me what happens with wide angle lenses on both formats, but only after you wrote it down. You're perfectly right.

They say
"We at PENTAX RICOH IMAGING will further strive to promote the digital camera business under the long thriving PENTAX brand, and establish it to be a leading company, with its unique path, ranking with other competitive top tier brands. "
You cannot do this without a full-frame camera, can you?
And I think (or hope?) they can do it, as long as they already have APS and medium format.

It would be quite bulky.
There is a need for flange focal, longer than for leica M-mount

Thank you, guys
Considering how much I want to spend for my toys,
I think I have to decide (thank you, LC) the format, and then the mount.
Is the difference between APS and FF so visible at wide-angle?

I'm just a torontonian, not a pentaxian yet.
I want a camera, it will be my first digital SLR (Leica is too expensive for me at the moment).
I had a Smena Symbol back in the eighties, I know it was a toy.
Now I need a complex toy. I'm not a professional (yet).
I have to decide: - the format: APS or FF
- the mount
I already have a K-mount Kiron 28mm f/2.8 (am I a pentaxian??? :lol: ), but I could get rid of it if i choose another mount.
Any suggestions, based on at least some experience?
Thank you for welcoming me.

Cosina lenses (Zeiss PK, Voigtlander) are discontinued. Do they have a reason for that? The new Pentax-Ricoh will buy (some of) those designs and manufacture them?
(I intent to buy a SLR, and I admire the K-5 specs, but D7000 still has the opportunity of using Zeiss and Voigtlander)
