Is there an alternative to the K-1?

I guess it won't be at top DSLR level in low light, but I believe the newer Sony bodies focus quite well in any light conditions (a7r2, a99II). I mentioned Sony just because of wide access to lenses.

You mentioned access to a wide variety of lenses, so Sony system could be an option for that, since you're basically gaining access to the best Nikkor and Canon mount lenses, plus modern Zeiss glass, as well as their excellent G master lens line up. Pentax glass would still be usable in manual, as well as any vintage lens out there. You can even get an adapter that turns Leica glass to AF lenses which is pretty cool. Plus you'd keep IBIS on A7 II and higher.

Why not Sony A7 line then? A7II has darn good specs, is a bit cheaper than K-1, has AF points all across the frame (I believe), and you can adapt a ton of glass (with AF) via different third party adapters. Won't even have to sell your glass collection)

That being said, I don't think i'd switch back to mirorrless for a while, K-1 is all I need
