Another low cost option might be the 50-200WR? I picked one up last year for under £100, and was genuinely surprised by the image quality that I was able to achieve with my K20. I think it is affordable as it appears to be underrated, but I've certainly been pleased with it. It too is light and compact, and has the benefit of the WR as well. Might be worth a look, it'll certainly be one of your cheaper options!

Camera received this morning in perfect condition. Thank you, John, for a very pleasant and easy transaction! I hope I can do it justice...

Having just bought a K5IIs, I can't justify having 3 bodies, and need to cover some of the cost of my upgrade

This is a mint K20D, bought last year on here, with less than 3,150 shutter activations (think it is 3,130). It has a Giottos screen protector on the rear, and the body is completely unmarked. It is boxed, with all leads, charger, 2 power cables (1 UK and 1 European), original instruction books and accessories, and comes with an additional Hahnel spare battery. Even the box is in good condition! I'll also include the Magic Lantern book that I have as well.

I have loved using this camera in a range of settings and some sample images can be found here. I just hope that I can get equally pleasing results with the K5IIs when it arrives

Looking for £210 plus shipping (RMSD for camera body and some of the accessories would be £11, and for the book, documents and remaining bits would be another £11 or slightly less for 1st class recorded (or if you want in one pack £25.80 - I don't understand RM's pricing policy!).

Uk buyers only in the first instance. Payment via bank transfer, Paypal (buyer covering fees) or cheque (to clear before sending). Cash on collection also welcome! Ebay feedback can be seen under user id 'hoddhead'.

Just to add that Phil was most understanding about my need to change my decision. A gentleman to deal with in every respect. This is undoubtedly a bargain...

Thanks, Phil Can't wait!
