Another nice set. The first two really grab me

Both of those are absolute crackers.

Looks like we were both "watching the birdie" this afternoon.

Robins are so cute.

We are having to restrict the dogs' access to the garden patio at the moment as a pair of Coal tits have chosen to nest in a hole in the brickwork and are actively feeding their young. We are praying for no heavy rain as they are nesting in a drainage gap.

This is what I resorted to a year ago when thunderstorms threatened another nesting pair......

One of the main reasons for not going full frame is the lens question. I was hoping, as the K-1 and K-1ii have been out a little while there might be a list of FF compatible lenses available. I think I read that the DA lenses can be used with a setting on the camera but doesn't that defeat the purpose of having a FF camera.
The "other" Pentax forum has an extensive list of compatible lenses. You may be surprised how many work with negligible vignetting, ie quite a lot of the DA lenses. What are your current lenses ?

You could look at the FA 24-90 3.5/4.5 IF , I had one but sold it stupidly.

FA* 24mm f2.0 is a nice lens, although it gets mixed reviews. I think £400 is gets you a reasonable one on ebay.

M 20mm f4 is also a good lens.

The advantage of these is if you pick one up and don't get along with it you can sell it on for similar price.

The Dynamic pixel shift on the K1 II uses the movement of the users hands to produce the four different shots, rather than moving the sensor by 1 pixel each time.

As HarisF1 points out, the camera's SR system then stacks the images exactly. It has been mentioned that this is nothing other than picture stacking/super resolution that any camera (even a smartphone) can do. But the point is that with the K1 there is no need to "stack" the images yourself in PP software.

The Dynamic PS is not a replacement for the original PS, you get both.
