Pentax have always been a slightly unusual company who do things differently.
They put their stabilisation in the body not the lens.
They build lenses in utterly unique focal lengths like 77mm and 43mm that have never been manufactured by anyone else.
They have used the same bayonet lens mount - the 'K bayonet' since 1975 when T Rex and ELO dominated the charts, mirror sunglasses were cool and being a dancing queen meant you were a girl.

The K1 simply is state of the art in ergonomics, build, features, weatherproofing, stabilisation, image quality, low light performance and value for money. It seems somehow appropriate that the company that started the SLR boom in the 1950's has ridden into a town full of bandits, stood toe to toe with the behemoths that are Nikon and Canon and stared them straight in the eye without blinking just like Clint himself would.
Gosh I love a plucky underdog and in the words of that Bond theme from your heyday in 1977
Pentax - 'Nobody does it better'
