That would *obviously* be a prerequisite, and another reason for developing a new TC, as opposed to Ricoh telling their customers 'meh - go and but a 2nd hand one or a third party knock-off' surely!?

Be careful on those fells! No good protecting the camera if you don't look after the one that presses the shutter!

But flexibility and ease of use matters more for me, and I still believe a chunky black DSLR and some high quality lenses will be more useful to me.
If I want to caress a camera, I can always pick up my old original MX. And pop it back on the shelf.

There's 15 secs. between the two dog shots and they are both
taken from the same spot. So a very rigid tripod with a fast
QR must have been used.
If you were to make screen sized files I wouldn't think there would be much difference between K-5.... K-3 and D600
The overall images from the K3 are nicer in terms of exposure and colour. The D600 is a hair better in terms of sharpness and noise at 100%, but nothing you'd spot in a screen sized image or even a large print I'm sure.

1. FF will be next year. Not later than Photokina 2014. Maybe, on spring or summer, 2014.
2. New DFA lenses will be. New 2.8 zooms will be.
3. New Limited Zoom will be.
4. New WR lenses will be.
5. K-01 is failed because of design. Mirrorless cameras from Ricoh will be.
6. New 645D will be later. It will be different from 645D. It was plans to launch 645DII this year, but the situation is changed.
7. SMC DA LIMITED are discontinued.

If you open both images side by side you can see slight differences in the position of the boxer's ears snout etc, as well as, obviously, the different depth of field on the 85mm lens vs the 55mm.
