Good spot, I've ordered one.

All excellent.

The answer is no. I have no intention of buying a 70-200mm lens either then or now. It doesn't fit in with my photography.

Yes, the larger sensors are better.

I routinely make A3 prints from the Q-S1 and MX-1 cameras and enter them in competitions. Nobody bats an eyelid. they look as good as anything else.

True. If we really wanted a 70-200mm f/2.8 it's also worth remembering that we already have one. The equivalent lens for APS-C format is 50-135mm.

very good, your Q will serve you well as a street camera, especially with that brilliant Bold Monochrome setting.

Quite. In any event, the 70-200mm f/2.8 only really comes into its own when the FF camera is available to use it on.

It seems to vary wildly, but yes, two weeks isn't unduly long in the scale of things.

I'd go along with that Steve. I'm not sure if I want it either. But it certain;y will be interesting, and if it should convince me then I'll go for it.

Different people have been asking for different things, and if they are suddenly on offer then some will buy and some won't. Let's hope that enough of those asking for FF are actually serious and make it worthwhile for Pentax, but then again the buyers who are not on Pentax sites will far outnumber those who are, so all will not be lost!
