Compactness is less important than it was 30+ years ago, because of the
proliferation of zoom lenses. Two or three lenses can cover what used to
require
half a dozen.
What's the point of claiming smaller body and lens size when such things are
no longer that important?

I backpack. I'm no longer 25 years old. My lungs burn when I toss 5+ pounds
of 20D and 2 lenses on the top of the pack.
Give me a lightweight DSLR with IS and good lenses (90 degree FOV, Macro),
and I'll buy it.
The Pentax is nice.... would like to handle the E-400, but...
