Sony now has a FF camera?
<channeling Seth and Amy from SNL>
Really, Pentax? You're going to allow Sony to jump
into the FF market ahead of you? Really? Sony? The
company that made the Walkman and the Betamax? I mean
you've been making SLR's since what, 1952? Sony's been
making them since...? Really?
;-]
On the serious side, I don't really have much of a dog
in this race. FF isn't the end-all-be-all for me (and
some of the specs on the A900 aren't really that
impresive, ISO range and AF). And yes, yes, yes...I
realize that Sony has all the money in the world to
put into R&D and production. And we all know about
Pentax's marketing strategy and pro-sumer bias right
now, but for whatever reason a FF Sony camera being
out there without a Pentax rival chaps my hide a bit.
I should remember the thing is going to cost $3000.
Makes me feel a little bit better.
K, I'm done.

The upside would be that my wide angle prime would again be a wide angle
prime.
The downside is I couldn't afford it anyway.
