No one in their right mind could possibly have wanted a digital camera with a less than full frame sensor which needed new lenses for wide angle work. I'm glad they didn't see fit to change the film format size each time they introduced a K mount film body. Of course sensor cost contributed to their decision to us an APS sized sensor but why try to make it a permanent fixture.
