One thing I consider a must is a good viewfinder as I just can't get used to using the rear LCD and holding the camera away from me to frame / take a shot.
Agreed and I have the same reservation about the EVFs on the G1/2/3. Though I don't doubt they will come to dominate things in the future.

K-r: lighter, faster AF, much better higher ISO performance, bigger and better LCD, current model so more expensive.

K10: ergonomically better (IMHO), water/weather proof, top LCD as well as main screen.

The only issue I'm aware of with the K-r is FF under tungsten (I think this is what I've read). The K10 does have a reputation for focus problems and some users have had to resort to using the fix available from a Russian website that lets you go into the engineers menu. I've had two K10s and one had the FF problem.

Davex,

Do you know what the differences are between the Mark 1 & Mark 2 version?

Kind Regards

Dave

Any tried and tested replacements for the standard battery? I do not wish to go down the AA route, so standard battery suggestions only please.
