The biggest moan on all forums is that Pentax need something
longer than 300mm for APS-C...so 100-400mm is a very late and
out of date response. I'm happy with my Tokina 80-400mm which
came out years ago, although SDM at 400mm would be tempting

For FF 150-600mm would be needed

The 60-260mm is a good lens and it's popular because of it's
performance rather than the focal lengths which are already
covered by the likes of the excellent 55-300mm.

The 100-400mm will be for APS-C It wouldn't be much use for
FF i.e. equal to 67-267mm

Some of the cheaper Pentax compacts used to be produced by
Casio.... maybe they still are. A DSLR with a built in
Casio Melody Alarm would sell like hotcakes. Even the
old watches sell for huge sums on ebay....

I can see the advertising slogans now!........
"THEY LAUGHED WHEN I SAT DOWN TO PLAY CHOPIN ON MY PENTAX"


AT PENTAX MIRACLES NEVER CEASE!

I used to have two Casio Cube Alarms used to wake me up with
a different pleasant tune every morning. The lasted over
20 years. I would love to replace them even with a DSLR

Great shot and it looks a really great place. I like the
red tone.

Perhaps the runaway success of the K-500 (18th Best Seller Amazon UK) will produce enough profit for them to waste it on a FF to compete with the Sony A7 (46th Best Seller Amazon UK)

I wonder if any of you people moaning about the lack of a FF camera have actually simulated one by stitching 3 portrait APS-C shots into one landscape It's acually better because the edges of the shot come from the sharper centre of the lens.

You could even go better and stitch a 645Z
