Get your Pentax K manual focus lenses now, folks.
When the Pentax full-frame DSLR debuts next year
all the good glass will become scarce and pricey...

Got it. Cool!
Yep, Chris, looking forward to that! Fortunately, I have kept all my KA and KAF full-frame lenses. They work just fine on APS-C size sensors of course, but I had an inkling that sooner or later Pentax would make a 24x36 sensor dSLR.
The only two crop-sensor lenses I have are the 3.2/21mm which is very useful on a crop sensor camera, but I do have the FA 20-35mm for full frame. The other is the 4/15mm which I was so eager for that I paid full price and pre-ordered on the Pentax website to get one as soon as available. Nice lens but I cannot recall now why I was in such a rush...
With a full-frame Pentax, I'll get more frequent use of my longest KA lens, the Zeiss 1.4/85mm ZK as well as the Pentax 1.8/77mm

It's looking like the FF Pentax will automatically detect and crop APS-C lenses...I'm looking forward to seeing how its received...
