K10d Body £449

Just ordered mine.

Been mentioned on here in the past.

Srsmicrosystems.co.uk

was £528 last week, but dropped in response to jessops.

That's a remarkable price and £150.00 less than I paid SRS for mine back in January. Serves me right for wanting (rather than needing) one so early I guess.

I could buy a second body I suppose . . . . Hmmmm.

Hmmm, £399 at SRS now.

£399 for a K10D!!!

Did I mention you can get a K10D for £399?

Silly money!

Dan

Thats nearly 200 euros cheaper than here, and only about 50 euros more than the K100D Special. Mmm, I'm in the UK next month...can I divert through Watford I wonder

Pity SRS don't post abroad

I paid £530 just over a month ago....gggrrrrr

Typical modern day dilemma

This is good news as I want to save up for one for my partner. All I need is to get some more lenses first though, otherwise we'll be sharing two which is a bad idea.

Oh yes they do. Chris sent my K10D and an AF540FGZ to Spain. Holland should be no problem.

Oh it says on their site that they only do UK deliveries. Mmmm, better smile sweetly at the OH then

Hi Gwyn,

PM me and we can sort one out for you - as Peter says we have supplied to him in Spain.

Chris

I didn't have any SLR stuff - so for me I got the Samsung GX-10 off Amazon with the twin lens kit for £599 - and the cashback means you get a lot of camera for £500

Just ordered my K10D body from Chris, it should arrive tomorrow. What an absolute bargain at £399.

Thanks Chris - I have to get the OH on side first I think. He always sees better destinations for spare money than cameras - like guitars .

I noticed last night that the K10D at SRS has gone back up to £435....
Do you think they made a boo boo? I'm glad that I got mine last week
Now do you think he'd drop the price of the Sigma 17-70, Bristol cameras are doing it for £215 (when it's in stock).
Thanks Chris
Harry

Park Cameras have put the price up too. I'm glad, the £399 tag was too tempting. I can ignore the new price more easily.

I must admit, I was thinking about a second body at £399. The urge has left me now, a little. I expect those folk trying to sell their K10Ds on eBay will be a bit happier though.

The thing about a lens, especially a MF one, is that if it's Ok on delivery it's very likely to stay that way. Failures, although they happen, are rare, or so I imagine.

Whereas with all the electronics, switches and shutter-related moving parts in the body itself, I feel a lot more inclined to have a warranty, even though failures in the body aren't exactly common.

This is just a gut feel, of course - not based on any evidence (in fact, the only photo equipment failure I've ever had has been a lens, not a body).
