Warning, this may cause some people a bit of angst.
I tried mounting some of my lenses on a full frame Pentax body and then
looking through the viewfinder to see how much was obstructed.
There was surprisingly little vignetting in the corners, suggesting that
the useable image size with so called digital lenses may be larger than
APS-C size on a K1.
This does not give any idea of the image quality around the edges, but
it is very encouraging, especially for my Limited and DA* lenses.

Yeah, people have been spreading the rumour that the official
announcement is going to come on Thursday. I've been skeptical myself.
But it appears, if I'm understanding things correctly, that someone
with connections to the German Ricoh distributor has posted an "Event"
on Facebook for the official K-1 unveiling at 6:00 p.m. (German time)
on Thursday and they give the location as being Pentax Ricoh Imaging
in Hamburg. That's pretty damned specific...
