However I am also very interested in the performance of DA* lenses in the Cropped sensor mode (CSM) where arithmetically we can expect 24.7% bigger photo-sites on the full frame sensor configuration.
If it's a 36MP full frame sensor, then crop mode will be roughly equivalent to the 16MP K-5 and the photo-sites will be pretty much the same size as those on the K-5.However I am also very interested in the performance of DA* lenses in the Cropped sensor mode (CSM) where arithmetically we can expect 24.7% bigger photo-sites on the full frame sensor configuration.

In terms of pixels, I guess it equates to the 24MP of the K-3. The bigger sensor needs more pixels if they keep the same pixel density - there's more space to fill.
Wouldn't it be closer to the 16MP of the K-5 - the surface area of a full frame sensor being about 2⅓ times APSC?In terms of pixels, I guess it equates to the 24MP of the K-3. The bigger sensor needs more pixels if they keep the same pixel density - there's more space to fill.

As always, some great images.
Prescott is worth a visit 23-24 May (especially if the sun's shining) for a good day out and plenty of photo opportunities with a lot of older marques around.
Likewise, as Rob has said Shelsley Walsh is also well worth a visit.

A few taken with the 18-135 - unedited and uncropped.
Not as sharp as the limited's or DA*'s, but nevertheless it's plenty good enough and a very convenient focal length when you want to travel light or you're not sure what lens to take. It's well worth having.
I've been toying with the idea of selling it because I don't use it that much, but then I think how handy the FL is and keep having second thoughts!
