The old OM System was a pleasure to carry and to handle and Pentax was similar but that was a lot due to their pretty small lenses with a 49mm filter thread. All true.

I wouldn't want to use any of the L lenses on a camera the size of my Pentax LX. I'd rather Canon just resurrect their old Canonet lens mount and use that in conjunction with an EVF.
