Thanks Peter - that sounds reasonable to me. I am trying to keep the cost down! I guess I should try and go for the i5

My 6-7 year old PC is beginning to show one or two quirks - eg things like a dreaded blue screen on power down etc!

So - have started to look at a possible replacement. The question I have is, will I noteice much difference in speed between the i3 and i5 Intel processors for using programmes like Lightroom/ ACDSee/ Elements, and possibly a video editing programme?

Any help appreciated

Andy

Thanks for the confirmation alfpics. Update OK. ( After several seconds of buttock clenching )
I would have thought that as it was a brand new camera it would have been delivered with the latest firmware in place, the update prior to this one anyway.

I felt that as well - cleaning the sensor is another one - both requiring a fully charge battery. But once done once, then not so bad next time round!

Correct - ie so when you explore the card, the BIN file appears next to DCIM folder

If one has the K-7/ K-5 one can do slight sideways and up/down adjustments using Composition Adjust - very useful feature, so for some shots only a 2-way focus rail is needed

I believe it is just updated older software - so can download from the Pentax support website
