I'd snap this up if I needed another K10D body, this is an absolute bargain.

I think if no-one buys it by the end of the day you should do yourself a favour and put it on ebay, have you seen the price these make on there? Pop it on with the lens. I'm tempted to buy it then ebay it myself, to be honest.

All the best,

K-3, a macro lens and a DA*300mm...

Last price drops on remaining items before they're off to ebay.

(Heck, I might even keep the K10d and lens at this rate! )

Knowing what ebayers are like you'll probablly get more for it once the bidding fever starts,

I recently listed some stuff "Various Bits" yet despite several enquiries nothing sold, I put some of it on ebay and got more for it than I was asking on here

Mmm, maybe it's because people think it's TOO cheap?!

Yes, it's going on ebay though realistically if nobody on here wants it. I would have been happy with £250 from the bay for the body, hence the reduced price on here, taking into account selling fees/paypal fees/postage/hassle using ebay!

Thanks both.

Just thinking the body and macro would make a nice walkabout camera.

Will have a think, if it goes in the meantime it wasnt meant to be

Thanks all, that's everything sold now I think!

I've only got a 50mm M SMC lens now which I'll stick up with some pics in another thread.

Many thanks again, Iain.

Everytime someone advertises a grip for the K10D I try to justify to myself why I should buy it ..... hmmmmmm

What's to justify!?!?

Perfect for portraits, double the battery life (spare is always in the body), stores a spare SD card, stores the IR remote, balances better with long lenses and gives your little finger something to grip onto!

Plus it's also weather sealed, and when you have a grip, DA*50-135 and flashgun all good to go, it does seem to get you into more places, and get you more respect!

When you want a light kit, take it off!

It was the first accessory I bought for my K10, and the one I would have the most problem trying to live without. The camera just feels plain weird without it!

Dive in, you won't regret it!

The grip arrived this morning and everything is fine.
Must say the camera does feel much better to hold with it on, quite suprising really.
My main macro lens is made 100% of metal and weighs a ton but with the grip on it balances so much better.
