Adapt "All" Lenses onto a Pentax K-mount DSLR

I think this camera hack is wonderful if it really works! :-o However, the most unfortunate thing is that there is no Full Frame body of any in K-mount, implying all adapted lenses will be cropped, defeating all their original designed purposes.

Do you really have to put the FF whinning into every post? This is unhealthy obsession...

As long as Pentax will not market a FF cameras, Rice probably will remain obsessed and unsatisfied, but if and when, in that so ardently appealed FF camera, instead to put the Pentax logo will be the Ricoh, the obsession will give way to the deep disgust.

Bukaj, you'd want perhaps to change him and his feelings?!

Full Frame is nothing other than Fear Uncertainty And Envy in a box.

All cameras are by definition "full frame". The brilliant marketing people at Canikon have manufactured a need by calling their larger sensor format "full frame" to imply that anything that came before it is inadequate.

Fact: APSC is the dominant sensor format in the world. Almost all of the lenses manufactured in the last decade are for this format.
Fact: Professional photography already has medium format for high quality work.

Full frame is designed to make people insecure and create a market out of nothing. This will be Canikon's Blu Ray: an expensive format that nobody adopts.
