No doubt, the latest K5II/s models are a lot of camera, and image-making performance, for the price.

Sometimes I'm serious and sometimes not, but I consider sarcasm an artform. Which is it today?

I still remember the day I got my first K-5. I'd already bought a spare charger and batteries, so fired it up as soon as I got it out of the box and took an identical picture with it and my K20D at something like 1600ISO ( IIRC ) I remember being amazed at the difference.
I want Pentax to make something that will amaze me in the same way.

You should try the Kx at 1600 ISO .......amazing!
