You should have done a bit more research on the prices before selling these

I think you need to learn how to focus the cameras for test shots. The stone wall at the back is very sharp on the Pentax shot and soft on the Hasselblad shot. So does that mean the Pentax wins. Also the ISO's are different 100 and 200??? Why???
The colour balance also needs to be closer.
Wide open isn't anyway to test a lens. A lot of excellent lenses are poor wide open such a a 50/55mm f/1.2

Obviously dreamt it Hardly anybody buys Sony FF even in Japan where mirrorless is quite popular.
The only sales are to a few Pentax defectors.
Should have been the Sony A6000 outsells ALL Sony FF
There isn't ONE SONY FF in the current weekly TOP 80 in Japan. Pentax are selling quite well with a few in the Top 40 although the prices are very low. The K-3 + 18-135 for instance (at 37) is a mere £610

APS-C outsells FF in any make by about 10:1 so why would Tamron even consider Pentax FF when they aren't interested in the bigger APS-C market.
I did hear a rumour that Pentax are bringing out a FF Slide Scanner

As an aside to the Tour, we did a 2 monthly visit to Booths and came away with 52 bottles of assorted beers, the 'local' well healed (read that as posh!) customers looked down their noses at such a quantity of beer. It's alright for them, they can call in daily for a 1/2 bottle of gin/scotch and nobody judges them.
Asda are still 4 bottles for £5 on most 500ml beers and 6 for £6 on Speckled Hen 500ml
Anyway enough about Beer for now .......
I really like this man's photography.......
