The quote that is best from this review of the DF: "We're not entirely
convinced this will offer a fast and fluid shooting experience with
the camera to your eye"

And this is where Pentax has room to surpass Nikon in the
retro-design. Imagine a camera that captures the looks of the original
MX or LX, but has the eye-to-the-viewfinder functionality of the
pZ-1p. It would also be cool if it provided a split-prism center
screen (to work well, out of the box, with MF lenses) and yet not
sacrifice AF. That would be a coup. If Pentax's full frame does not
sacrifice all video capabilities, I think that would be a win for
sales.
