Rondec I am not saying Photoptimist is wrong in any way. If Ricoh/Pentax wants to stay competitive they need to move to UHS-II sooner rather than later.

None of those cameras had sufficient subsystems to handle 4k either namely the write speed to media storage.

It doesn't really matter what sensor is used if the other systems can not keep up is an obstacle. That is the problem with the K-1 and K-1II. The UHS-I storage bus can not handle the 36mp sensor. It is the reason there is no 4k video. It is the reason they are not very responsive cameras.
I am not asking Ricoh/Pentax to put everything into video but at least make it simpler to switch between stills and video. As it is now it doesn't work just going from one to the other. Simplify it by setting the Frame rate you want to use with the corresponding shutter speed needed. If you are using 24fps then the shutter will automatically be 1/48s. 25fps will automatically have 1/50s, 60fps 1/120s etc. Instead we have a complete disconnect that forces the user to have to reset shutter speed switching from video to stills. This alone will elevate the video features. We are not getting 4k without UHS-II.
