Hum. Maybe this thread should be merged with "What is pentax doing" ? Anyways I can see the advantage of building cameras (even if they are the same size) without mirrors - providing the evf is 'good enough'. I.e, it would great simply long term issue; remove vibrations and simplify manufacturing cost. Naturally it is cheaper for pentax (which has $$$ issues) to use the existing lens system; though I kind of would hope it would be full frame.
