I recently splashed out on a 77 ltd and thought that would be it. Then I suddenly came into some cash (more than a little) and on a total impulse bought an A* 85mm. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what I was thinking given I just got the 77 (I think I wasn't thinking). So as I see it, LBA is similar to sex in that you see the lens, all the blood rushes from your head, leaving you delirious and susceptible, then you blow a wad of cash. Does that pretty well sum it up?

I think this would be fantastic! Nothing to add! I do have something to scratch though: Vintage body = ewwww! Give me something with only good ergonomics and functionality in mind and it would be fantastic.
Such a short flange focal length would be moving away from the K-01 mirroless-with-a-mirrorbox design though. I would be all for it.

The K-01 is already good, but for a new mirrorless I guess it would be better if they adjust the body design more for potential video users.
So it's like the K-01 with better grip,
the K-5 II's screen (and if possible, articulating screen? Olympus managed to make one for the EM-5...)
battery grip option/secondary power source dock
not sure about making a new mount. Pentax has 3 mounts to work for already (Q, K, 645) and they are way behind other manufacturers (and their own) making lenses for those mounts

With FF you go down to 3500 lpm while with aps-c down to 2500 lpm only, thats what I mean greater analysis.
With aps-c you have acceptable results until 800 iso, with FF you got less noise, you got acceptable results at 2500 iso, that's 1.5 stops ahead.
The fact that you can save space on a mirrorless system doesn't mean that you have to spend it on a bulky reducer. Instead they could design larger aperture lenses. The most important is that a reducer degrades quality.

Interchangeable sensor camera. That is why Ricoh Imaging still have some issues but not for a long.

Nice stuff you have there. :)
Just sort of a adapter that can couple the screw drive and contacts from the base mount.
In other words, K users will have not difference in usage on such a camera.
At this point though, I'd even be happy if Pentax/Ricoh came up with FF K or M-mount GXR
