The big advantage to a full frame CCD is that our existing wide angle lenses will remain as such. Nothing quite so exciting as having your 20mm behave like it was a 35mm. So, if I have to buy some new lenses (I like wides), then why buy Pentax. It seems to me, that lens compatibility with my *existing* lenses is a big reason to consider a digital Pentax.
So now I look at a company who appears not to want to compete in this arena coupled with me having to revamp part of my system. Sure pushes me to want to look at competitors who are competing and providing equipment at a much faster rate.
