So "REALLY ridiculous" is a bit too harsh, imho. <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Let me rephrase it:
Pentax Q sensor: 28.07 sqmm
Pentax K5 sensor: 370.52 sqmm
So if you mount Pentax DA lenses to the Pentax Q you will exploit 7.5% of the image field theses lenses are designed to cover.
It's your personal take, of course, how to call this.
If 2mp super tele images are your goal you could as well simply crop a K5-based image taken with the same 50mm lens accordingly.
