The key word that both Pentax and Sigma will have left out from their advice is officially as in, the only lens you have that officially works FF is the 150-500. In practice quite a lot of your lenses will do just fine at FF. The DA 35mm f2.5 and DA 50mm f1.8 do extremely well FF with only small amounts of vignetting when wide open (easily removed in post processing). If you want to check how the rest of your Pentax lenses do take a look at the Pentax K-1 Laboratory which has a very comprehensive set of test photos taken with most (if not all) Pentax lenses on the K-1.

Bottom line, I was originally going to upgrade from an original K-5 to a K-3II but decided to wait and instead make the bigger jump to the K-1 and do not regret that decision in the slightest. It is an absolutely incredible camera and while the K-3II may be great too I can't help thinking you'd end up kicking yourself for not going the whole hog!
