i had a momment of weakness today on ebay again,now own a k-x ,to go with k100d,and k200d,well i expect i will ditch the k100 now for starters.

Offer it for sale on here. Good place to sell as there are no ebay fees etc. That goes for your other excess stuff too! I have bought quite a bit of gear from forum members over the last couple of years.
Best wishes, Kris.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

'cos we only sell what we don't want to keep.
Folk like me watch the classifieds when I'm wanting something and then I wait till it's there and try and buy from another member .
Both my Samsung 50-250 and the 40mmLtd were sold by other members

Don't look in the shop->classified ads (which no one uses) but at the forum section Classified Ads Forum.just looked in classifieds ,hardly anything there.whys that.nigel.
When you said "topbox for the BMW" I naturally assumed you had a BMW motorbike with a topbox, not a car with a roof rack!

I shouldn't consider posting anything on this site that hasn't been post processed at least levelled and sharpened.
Don't think that spending the best part of £1000 on a camera will make you a better photographer: it won't.
Stick with your K200D, learn what it will do, vary the lenses you use, compose your pictures carefully, look at images posted here and in the Gallery and you should improve.
You live in an area which is particularly conducive to good photography: there's so much potential. Exploit it!
Best wishes,
Andrew

Hertfordshire,
mostly.
I must be the only person with a budget. I had the K10D. When the K7 came out I considered it and bought a K20D. Video and Live View don't interest me and the price difference was significant for me. So far, no regrets.
Since I started with the IstD, I am rather hooked on having two dials for adjustment. I'm sure I could adapt but I'd rather not.
For me, the K20D paired with Lightroom3 beta works well.
