Thank you Bob for being so considerate and friendly.
Enjoy your new toy.
All the Best,
George
P.S. You should have bought my wife's silver limited.
Now I'll have to hide in the bush when I see pentaxian.

Lol, thanks George!
I have to say, I didn't expect to be THIS impressed with the K-5 (coming from a K-7 perspective). That's not to say I had low expectations of the K-5, but I didn't expect such a boost to AF speed both in standard and DA* lenses (both in actual focus speed and in locking-on). The hugely superior ISO performance has meant I'm getting very sharp shots with the 55-300 at F8 when out and about. I also want to have a good play with the 30mm 1.4 at high ISO's in situations where you'd expect to have to rely on flash.
So in summary, very very pleased indeed with my K-5. Kinda wish I'd come on-board much earlier!
