Probably the hottest APS-C deal I've seen since the one on Amazon for £549. Also includes the DA 18-50 lens which makes it an all in one package!

Great price...interesting development.

I'm guessing that it is not selling very well at its inflated price which means that its likely SRS and other UK Pro dealers will be offloading them soon at about £700 with 2 yr warranty.

I'd be tempted to wait for that deal and of course the K-3 III will probably appear before the end of the year which is another reason that the KP had to be reduced in price.

Jessops have done this before, taking payment and then had to refund customers (which took about 3 months!) when it turned out they never actually had any in stock. I wouldn't trust them again!
Regards,

A KP for lower than the K70 is a deal everyone should seriously consider. The K-3iii may or may not arrive any time soon, and the second hand prices of the K-3ii are still very close to £500. No brainer for me, if I'm recommending a new camera.

Thanks Haris for the heads up, just wanted to say it was the real bargain that it looked and jessops came through superbly. They didn't take any money until it was shipped.
