Doesn't "good glass" give better results on most cameras:

1 day to go
Born again biker with lots of Pentax bits. Every day I wake up is a good day. I'm so old I don't even buy green bananas.

Yes, very true, but it's more critical on some than others. Some fairly ordinary lenses could probably out-resolve the early digital sensors, but this is not so with the K-3.

Good for you Steve. Now I'm just waiting for my DBG-5 which SRS don't have in at this time but will send to me when they have them. I like the extra size of the grip and have had them on all my Pentax cameras since my Z1P. I've got hands like baby steam shovels.
CHEERS Vic.
