I too have looked for a lighter backpacking option and eventually came back to the K5 as my lighter option as it's the smallest thing that does everything I want! Combined with Ltd's it would be ideal (Like the last time!) but that would mean buying that dammed 21mm again and I may as well just superglue it to the body because nothing else ever got a look in! My partner breifly owend a Panny GF1 which I liked the idea of, I think the ideal for me would be a bigger Q with the APSC Sensor, fitting somewhere in between the size of the current one and K-o1 with a clip on OVF with frames for the Ltd's, could be sold as a poor mans Leica? It may not now be "Different" enough for Pentax but still it may happen?
Still all that may change when I eventually get to hold an actual K-O1

Decided not to show pics of my Cat or my Workstation
Instead I decided to take my new aquisition for a walk on the Nature reserve which used to be a Steam Railway Shed back in days of Yore, so first attempts with the SigWide, All taken in Film reversal Mode as it seemed to fit the venue. All handheld at 100 ISO in dim light, not best practice but I got away with most of em I think...
Be gentle. :arrow:

These guys are very good too but I'm not sure they have what you need but if there was a Market would maybe be more likely to make what you require?
