Pentax Australia has suggested that a full frame camera from the company will be addressed “closer to November” of this year on their Facebook page.</p>
<p>The Pentax digital medium format 645 is quite a good value and I suspect their first full frame camera will follow that same concept. Pentax has to do something that is feature rich and a great value if they want people to buy their 35mm DSLR.</p>

Im looking forward to seeing this, there are some very good full frame lenses in the Pentax back catalogue, and the K-3 II is probably a good indication of what they will provides as a full frame K-mount. Given the price comparison between K3 II and 7D/D7x00, I'm expecting a very good set of features for the price.

Meanwhile, I'm waiting for my Fotodiox adaper to trial my 55/2 on my 6D. I know that it's a lovely lens on my S1a.

Let's not forget it will have AWESOME DYNAMIC RANGE that will stomp all over puny Canon.

I bet you are a hit at parties too.

I was being sarcastic. Most threads on CR eventually lead to comparing Canon Sensors to Sony's. I got it out of the way for everyone so the thread can run it's proper course. Joking aside, when I'm not shooting with my STILL AMAZING Canon 7D & 5D mkII, I shoot with 2 Pentax K-01's!
