Hello gfen, Not sure why you are saying alas. You haven't tried it. I have used an MX for many, many years and it is among my favorite bodies of all time. The process that John described is faster to use than an MX. So if you are happy with your MX, you should not be significantly bothered by the Pentax DSLR.
