Pleased K20D owner

Well my K20D and DA* 16-50 has arrived (courtesy of excellent service by SRS). The battery is on charge and I'm flicking through the manual (in between some work :wink. The overriding impression is that it has quality written all over it. I had forgotten to large extent about the feel of the K series since I last picked one up (over a year ago). Very happy and looking forward the checking out the 16-50

Cheers

Have fun, it is a nice outfit

I should have mine tomorrow? btw, how long do these batteries take to charge?

I think about 3 hours or so... still waiting

It must feel huge compared to your Olympus though!
Have fun with it.

Thanks.
Larger yes but not has large (or heavy) as an E-3. Actually my E-510 has the 12-60 on it most of the time which isn't the smallest of lenses (pretty similarly sized to the 16-50). In fact the K20D with the 16-50 mounted is probably better balanced as a package from a handling point of view.

Enjoy.

mate has a canon eos450d, and when i held it i felt the difference between that and the K20D. definately glad i got the pentax

quality over quantity anytime

Welcome to the club! I adore my K20D

Well from limited testing this evening it looks like the 16-50 is OK. I shall try a further few tests tripod mounted in daylight. But it's looking good so far

Mine was shipped Friday. Yesterday two extra batteries arrived from Hong Kong. I cannot wait for the camera!

Have fun guys with your new cameras, its a shame the weather isn't a little more accomadating

By the way its a balmy 41C here in Sydney today
