Added a k-30 to my collection

I also took out the cu...

K30 vs K5
I keep reading the k-30 does not have two dials, I can confirm it does, the k-30 also has lens focus adjustment like the k-5 has.

The incredible manual focus K-5 II
I received my K-5 II today and was looking forward to trying out the much discussed, greatly improved low-light auto focus system. Unfortunately this proved impossible as it turned out I had received the (hopefully) extremely rare limited edition manual focus version. Yup, the AF system on my K-5 II...

Are they bringing a replacement with them? It's already been picked up, but no they are going to test the faulty body before sending out a new one, which is reasonable enough.

Well the replacement K-5 II body arrived today as promised. I'll post a new thread regarding the low light AF on this camera as that's really a separate topic.
