F/1.4 v f/1.8 in practise on digital no difference apart from appealing to people who like to throw away money and tick lists.

Nothing to do with Pentax anyway.

Port! ..... I'll drink to that!

Just look at the fancy remote that Sony users can get for £20 for most of their cameras. It even controls the focus

There have been reports of sightings of ghosts and other things from the past such as Pentaxes

You can get Free software that will mount a DVD Image to look like a DVD drive. They use it for games etc.

Windows 8 and upwards has it built in. So only needed for W7

See....

If you need to create an image containing the install files Imgburn is very good....Also good for all burning to actual DVD's.

£550 is too much for a paper weight!! I've got a silver one I bought at Ratners for £5 years ago

The Ricoh GR II was also on offer, but that's really looking old now and they never fixed the dust problem.

Just imagine how many K-5 owners are having to look at other makes for an upgrade.

The K-70 has MIC on the rubber door to the socket, but no symbol to show that it's also for the remote cable. I've seen two reviews that say the K-70 hasn't got one. Such lack of attention by the designer is mind boggling What's more important a remote or a mike?

I'm quite sure that having the original plus other shots taken at the same place would be good enough to prove Copyright. There's bound to be a Freelance site that explains it.

For a minute Stan, I thought you'd bought a Canon to shoot at the Pentax Offices

I almost clicked though on the Silver KP at £550, but then thought it's only really any use as a paperweight without an InfraRed port Even the cable remote isn't standard so my radio transmitter and receiver won't work with it.

Looks like I'll be sticking with the K-5 for a bit longer

I was a bit tempted on some of the Sony Offers

This is pure nonsense and in no way connected to Pentax so why waste time posting it?

Now a camera that warms pies up and chills beer would be of great interest to this group

She probably wants somewhere to keep that chipped tea mug with the broken handle containing the old paintbrush with the dried solid gloss paint on it...... Oh! and the dead spider .... Serves you right for giving it to her as a birthday present!
