Poll - who would £1000 for a full frame K10D?
I raised a similar question some time ago, thinking that a 35mm sensor'd DSLR from Pentax was not too far away given the speed of electronics development. Since then, based upon the opinions of this and other forums (or is it fora?), I have concluded that it is not likely that Pentax will produce a ...

I would probably have paid £1000+ for a full frame DSLR had one been made available, I think Pentax's commitment to the Digital only lenses proves a full frame sensor could be a long way off. But I am probably wrong, who knows where technology will be in 5 or ten years time.

why do you want a full frame sensor? lower noise because the pixels are larger, perhaps. I don't see the point of a full frame sensor, especially if you see the advances that are made with the aps-c sensors, the k10d is supposed to have less noise then the older units whilst having more pixels on ...

It totally depends on each others circumstance. As I'm going into medical hopefully, a full frame sensor would be ideal. There are issues to do with macro (true measurements, photographer/doctor interpretation of results etc) which get a bit harder to deal with. Of course, if a skin rash image is...

Personally, I'd rather see someone come up with a sensor with a more sensable aspect ratio, more like the 8x10/11x14/16x20 photos that portrait and wedding shooters tend to sell. Since with either full-frame or APS-C, you're essentially cutting off the edges of the frame, a 10 megapixel sensor w...

This is only true for the people who use the imperial measurements. For us the images are: 10x15, 20x30, etc. This is all 2:3 the same as the sensor when I'm right. 35mm film is 24x36mm, allso 2:3. Why then change the sensor aspect ratio if it is only needed for people who use imperial measureme...

Not every image will suit the same aspect ratio, so I make images of all sorts of shapes and print them myself. The only constant is that I print them on a sheet of A3 paper. I then cut it in a rotary trimmer to whatever shape the actual image is, usually leaving a neat white line around it. S...

Oh goody, looks like I won't have to add a bundle more SD cards to the shopping list then. :) And to answer the original question in this thread, No I wouldn't. I've never printed anything bigger than a 10x8, and don't expect to. Therefore the DS and K10D are more than adequate in sensor siz...

The K10D certainly promises to be a fabulous camera but I just wonder what else Pentax have up their sleeves and how quickly they'll be released. By then end of '07 we'll probably have the K10DS followed shortly by the DS2 and K10DL and then the DL2...ho hum! I kind of assumed that the 'K' was t...

I'd die and go to heaven if they would dare to resurrect the MZ-D - that handling coupled with a 12-16MP (I'd even settle for 10MP) sensor (full frame please Pentax!) would be my idea of perfect. I've yet to find a camera that sits in the hand as nicely as the MZ-S plus grip - my fingers sit in the ...

When you see what Leica have managed to produce out of a "small" 10 MP sensor, there is a long way to go. The problem at the moment seems to be the thickness of the IR filter required. The problem would then remain of very wide angle lenses. If the smaller sensor had been adopted as "...

Of course it really comes down to the photographer and not the kit he is carrying, e.g. Michal Daniel Oh, that is wonderful. The earlier post calling Mr.Rockwell's review/opinion as "rubbish" raised my eyebrows but I kept my peace. This site is fantastic, and I will study it whenever I s...

I still could care less about "full frame". If a sensor was designed to match, say, the dimensions of A3 paper, we'd be using all 10 megapixels on the K10D for salable prints rather than only a bit over 8. The shape of the sensor makes a lot of difference. We've gotten used to the 4x6...

I WOULD BUY A FULL FRAME PENTAX FOR 1000pounds, but I want this body to be compatible with TTL Flashes and all the lenses by Pentax. If it becomes true, please send me a message. I got tired to wait Pentax to do the right things. Buy a 645D when it arrives, you have your big sensor then. Why on e...
