suppose it's a waste of money, although neither of them fits my needs.
I've been sort of aiming towards the "K-3" being my next Pentax camera,
whether it's FF or not. I'm not willing to pay $3K for another APS-C
body, but I would for full frame. It would hurt, but I'd do it.
At that point I'd just sell all my Pentax gear, buy a D800/E and start
over. Watch everyone complain if/when there's a Pentax FF that now all
the money they spent on the APS-C lenses reduces the resolution when
put on a FF body. Many will have to buy new lenses, so at that point,
why Pentax?
Pentax has taken too long for me to conceivably buy into a FF system
from them. Even a $2000 body at 24MP would make me think long and hard
on spending on Pentax vs. taking my business elsewhere.
Yeah, a big investment in APS-C lenses would be a problem, but mostly
I've been getting by using film lenses. The only APS-C lenses I have are
the 18-55 kit lens that came with the K-20D & a couple of Sigmas (30mm
f/1.4 & 10-20 zoom).
