Good points. I found the buffer size to be somewhat challenging shooting
baseball and birds, but I learned to adjust. The focus points can cause some
problems shooting sports in that with horizontals the top point doesn't fall at
face level. In terms of cost and lens selection he apparently doesn't know that
the Tamron 70-200 is available for the Pentax.
I would be very interested in spending some time with the K-1 and the
D810 side by side. My hope is that the K-1 will attract enough people
to Pentax that third party lenses become more profitable and hence
available. I'm also interested to see what happens over time with
Pentaxes own lens lineup. A weather sealed 85/1.4? I'd love for them
to make a weather sealed, AF version of the samyang 24/1.4.
I wonder what the Pentax lens roadmap looks like these days.
I've run into the same problem as you with there not being a good focus
point for composing on the face. I don't understand the technical
challenge of more focus points. At least if I'm shooting sports,
there's a good chance I'll be using it in crop mode and that'll
alleviate both the buffer and the focus points issues.
