With the announcement of the new K7 I was wondering who has which model Pentax DSLR.

So for those of us who can't afford the latest toy I thought I'd start a pole.

Which model(s) do you have?

Just vote for the one you use the most.
Cheers, HG

K110+DA40, K200+DA35, K3 and a bag of lenses, bodies and other bits.

Mustn't forget the Zenits, or folders, or...

PPG entries.

I'll start the ball rolling, I've a K110d and K200d, both get used and produce excellent shots.

I use the K200d most, it's a battery grip thing...

If the improvements in; AF, exposure metering and noise control are as good as claimed in the K7 and if those improvements are put into a K20 upgrade (K30 with pentaprism?) selling for the price of the K20 then I will upgrade.
The video features and higher frame rate of the K7 are not important to me and are not something that I would be prepared to pay for.

Well for me a K10 at the moment also the better half has one.

K20D used most, K10D backup. Had a *istD but I've just sold it. K10D will go soon to help fund a K-7 when the price is more attractive (irresistable).

I still have my first digital camera, istDS, but it's now used mainly by my wife and sometimes by my ten year old grandson. I have two K10 bodies, one generally has a tele zoom on and the other a wide angle zoom.

K10D, cost me £250 delivered from the states just over 12 months ago (my first DSLR)
Came with just over 3500 clicks, now on around 28,000.

Hopefully the novelty of taking a picture of anything that moves multiple times has now worn off so a K-7 is likely just before xmas.



Or maybe sooner.

K20D and K10D, I gave the istD to my son last xmas, no intention of upgrading to K7D as I have no interest in video, as for a faster frame rate....dont get me started on using skill to capture a shot Vs luck

K20D but I also have a K-7 & BG4 Grip on order with SRS.

I'll probably keep my K20D as a backup body, although I'll decide for sure when I have had a chance to have a thorough play with the new camera.

Upgraded from a K110D the first DSLR to a K10 then this year to the K20D.

Now working on the lenses
In the collection and used regularly;
Pentax 12-24 F4, Pentax 17-70 F4 SDM.

I also have a Sigma 50mm macro and a 70-300mm APO macro, but looking to sell them for the Pentax 60-250 F4 SDM and may be a 50mm F1.4.

As for the K7 will wait and see. I would like higher dynamic range, better low light use and faster focus, these points have nearly lead me to jump to a N**** D700 but I keep hanging in there because of the Pentax kit I already have and to be different from most.
