Not had time to examine these yet, but they should be interesting. It's a good move for this info to be all over Facebook!

Yes, because it was just a stand alone picture from your compact, with nothing to compare it to. So there was no relevance to the discussion about the Q. Pictures from other than Pentax cameras need to have a context on a Pentax User site. You could show us any compact image and it would have meant the same, nothing that adds to the discussion.
If we want to see what we'll get from the Q then some pictures from the Q would seem appropriate.

Pentax images only please. This isn't a forum about Sony compacts.

Funny, because that's what people have been calling for. I can't remember reading even one post amongst tens of thousands on half a dozen forums that ever said "Let's have Pentax make a point'n'shoot with interchangeable lenses."
Actually you're wrong with this, there was a time when there was a very vociferous call from several posters for a digital version of the Auto 110. It was quite the idea a while back. That's what we wanted, and now we have it. First we got the I-10 and now we have a slightly larger version with interchangeable lenses.Funny, because that's what people have been calling for.

One thing at a time, concentrating on the photography is quite enough without being distracted by music.
My feeling is that photography is trying to create an emotional reaction from the viewer, an empathy. How can you do that against a background of different emotional involvement - the music? The music dictates a feeling - what happens if you want to create some other kind of feeling. I don't think it can be done.

It's a splendid lens, well made, inexpensive and superb quality.

I had an old 5mp Samsung that gave perfectly acceptable results and much better than my newer Samsung compact
