I just started a contract at home. My poor 67 never even got inside my

The disposable was only because I had forgotten my *ist D that day. I
skied with it last weekend two days. Now I could be convinced to get a
DA 40 for it. The 31 LTD was a little bulky under my coat.

Yep, the 31 is not exactly petite. The problem with the DA 40 is the AOV
on digital. A 24mm pancake would be just the thing.

From Fuji throwaway to Pentax 67. You certainly cover a wide range,

You guys watch out and get ready to put on your tinted glasses.

I've already said that Pentax is far too late in releasing this
camera.
However, I suspect it might be moderately successful. Many of the
people who used to shoot with the 645 will have held onto their
lenses, so their only cost in switching back will be the new body,
and perhaps a new wide-angle.
It's certainly going to push second-hand lens prices up a bit. If
they reach a happy stage where they tempt people to sell them, but
are not too expensive to buy, then I am sure some small-format DSLR
people would be interested because it will be a cheaper way into
big sensors than going Canon FF, and there is none of the hassle
and cost of shooting big negatives/slides which used to put people
off using film MF.
Of course, much will depend on price.
