As well as an outright purchase, I would be interested in a swap for the excellent Pentax 75-150 SMC I have on the Classified Forum currently. See here: link

Personally haven't tried the Q, but I do own the K-01 and think after it's first firmware was released it became a super camera. I can use any lens and it DOES take great snaps. Personally I like the way it looks and feels, but hey I like different...
Great camera with it's 40mm xs 2.8 lens combo.
For me the focus peaking and lens compatibility make it a great addition to a DSLR setup. And discontinued means cheap. I can buy one here for $300.
I have also put it through some tough use and it holds up really well.
I think when this camera came out, the reviewers were so offended by the way it looks, that the actual performance of the camera was not looked at seriously, I think it's was hampered because of the clouded aesthetic reception it got. It may not appeal to every one in the looks department, but is is without a doubt a great camera.

I have to endorse the sentiments in this post.
