Nothing yet, although since my FF compatible glass is a little sparce I'll be testing some today to see how they compare directly to the K3 Certainly shows off the K1's potential. Anything with other DA lenses, especially with crop mode?

Hi Algi, I have to say that every time I've upgraded (K100>K200D, K200d->K5, K5->K3) first test shots have always been a little disappointing because expectations are so high and a takes a while to settle into a new camera. Not so this time, quite the opposite, expectations are being blown out of the water...These are better than I expected and at last the 43mm can show how good it is.

So, I took the K-1 to my local park this lunch time with the FA43ltd and DA*300, first real test in a more normal environment. Overall, I'm loving the camera, feels incredibly familiar but better, more up to date, quicker. Viewfinder is fantastic, focussing is much better than my K-3 and very quickly get used to the new positioning of buttons etc.
Anyway here are the results, C&C welcome
1: The Park
2: No park series is complete without a flying rat, while not perfect the AFC mode miles better than K3 (ISO 800)
3: I was't the only one enjoying the sun, or maybe I was !
4: Shot over the river, when I noticed a friend in the bottom left corner
5: Glad I took the 300 !
6: Nothing like a good scratch
7: Concentration!
8: Pretty Feathers
9: Another Park shot with the 43, this camera is awesome.. Detail incredible
10: I found another friend, this is shot at ISO1600!
11: Focus not perfect, gonna take a while getting used to the small DOF
12: Furry Friend..

There are updates to Lightroom and ACR than now support processing of K-1 RAW files. Hats off to Adobe and Pentax for getting their respective acts together so quickly
I just updated Lightroom on my 5K iMac and imported RAW files of my first play with the K-1 last night, I have to say that the image quality and sharpness of the K-1/FA77 combo are astonishing ! I had a play with pixel shift and just looking at the LR rendered RAW files from both shifted and non shifted versions, it's a proper WOW moment ! Viewing them on the 5K retina screen really highlights the difference.
This camera is just Awesome !

Poor subject, but after a days work and 4 hour round trip to SRS, I didn't have time for anything particularly creative. However I did have to have a little play with Pixel Shift. One image with and without below.
Resolution is amazing, Camera feels like an old friend. Gonna be very happy, will give it a proper test tomorrow and at the weekend..
Both jpg straight out of camera, just cropped.. Haven't figured out reading a RAW file yet but I can confirm that a pixel shift RAW files is 161MB :-O
