Also the focus ability of the lens depends on the registration distance to
the film plane. All the lenses would no longer focus at the normal ranges.

Subject: RE: Pentax Digital NEWS! Part one
Here's a thought:
surely the only reason that the 3MP camera would not be "full frame" is the
distance of the sensor array from the lens. If when designing the 3MP camera
the array were place closer to the lens then surely full frame would be
achieved. Wouldn't this solve the lens issue, (if not the resolution). I
accept that this could mean major design issues such as mirror positioning
and a different distance to the focusing screen, but if you are designing
the camera from scratch, this may not be such a problem. As I said just a
thought and perhaps I haven't thought it through enough...
Regards,
