It is rumoured that the K-01 will soon be announced on Feb. 2, together with the world's thinnest APS-C prime, the 40/2.8 XS, which probably to be the kit lens of the K-01. But also mind you that the K-01 is probably the world's thickest mirrorless ILDC btw! :-o

Why don't they design a 'pull out' type of mount ie, stays thin for special ILDC lens and extends the mount (like a little DC) when you fit an SLR lens?

if its the same k mount, all the electrical contacts (minus screw drive) can be easily replicated in an adapter, thus, making it compatible with KAF3 lenses.
so you can have a very compact mirrorless lens (ML ?) or with an adapter, use DA/FA lenses.
so with the same adapter you might be able to use the ML lens on a APS-C camera (with a crop factor?)
all with full functionality :-)

and keeping the existing lens mount means they got a decent selection of lenses ready to buy, but more importantly... they can put thier resources towards making more lenses, like telephotos which users keep demanding !
