I read somewhere recently that the lensmount on the new sony evil cam is big enough to fit a kmount 35mm lens into..... and the lenses for the samsung nx are no smaller than the pentax kit lenses!!!
maybe Pentax will release an evil with k-mount and pancake lens !
if pentax ships an evil with kmount I'm in, no and if's or buts about it, "Merry Christmas Honey I bought me, I mean you something!"

I wouldn't consider the x70 as a replacement for a pocket cam nor a replacement for a d-slr with primes or ultra wide angles, but I would consider it a workable replacement (size wise) for any 70-300 or 300mm+ lens for telephoto use... plus it brings video to your kit if you need some... compare the x70 to say my 400 mm sigma, in the camera bag and the x-70 starts to make sense...Don wrote:

I have looked at the X70 but it is not really a pocket camera not my pockets anyway, but it sure has a high fps count. I will look at the G11, thanks for that.until pentax steps up with a proper answer, the canon g11 is the compact to beat.

The A80-200 takes up far less space and is lighter than the 55-300, with more reliable focusing lol. Can't really help re compacts but the panasonic lx3 seems to have great iq, whereas casio have some tremendously fast shooting compacts.
I was thinking the 10-24 for landscapes,buildings and the 55-300DAL for animals etc. The A80-200 produces beautiful images at any focal length but I do like the auto focus on the 55-300.The A80-200 takes up far less space and is lighter than the 55-300, with more reliable focusing lol.
