Just passed through Gatwick and Dixons had a Pentax 645D on the stand next to a white Kr! Gave it a little go, however no card in it, nearly put my SD card in!

What an amazing camera! Handled just like a bigger K7! Just stunned by it. Performance and handling reminded me of my K10D, but with 40MP output!

Now where did I stash that £8999

You can get 3 Nikon D800 for that price.

Beakynet - Dixons are over-priced anyway! They may well deduct customs duty off the cost, but it's down to the buyer to reclaim the 20% VAT.

Just invested in a 645D. Truly a marvelous bit of kit.

I'd have put my card in it and fired a few shots to look at later.
