My K10D was misplaced in a national park in Australia last week ;( me mum and i were wandering through, looking and the tree but there werent many great photo ops and it didnt make it out of the park ;( am absolutely gutted understandably but will probably be able to put in some of my own money and upgrade my gear to a Pentax K20D - i am assuming thats for the best? i heard some rumours that Pentax wasnt gonna be around for much longer but i cant imagine any of the other cameras on the market would be able to stand up to my heavy outdoor/festival/muddy-field usage... Pentax always felt and seemed like the sturdiest of them all. So GoodBye K10d, you were a good friend and a hardcore camera, Hello K20D!!!

The rumours of Pentax's demise have been greatly exaggerated...
Best regards, John

Welcome to the K20D club! You won't be disappointed.

It makes me smile every time I go out, especially when my mate's Canon struggles to get the same results!
For the love of all things photogenic!
