either way you will get used to it - cant think of anything better than this camera, well maybe to be able to shoot at 1600+ ISO because it's still not the case... otherwise perfect.

same in germany, i couldnt find anywhere to hold it in my hands - so i went ahead and bought it online (you can always return it in case you hate it).

i haven't used it much, but so far i am very impressed, i dont know what camera you were shooting with, but that's probably the most important aspect of it - i had the K30 and i dont feel lost at all with the KS-2. It does feel a little bigger, but the buttons are in the same place.

it has a nice grip and the results of the few pics i've taken are one step above the K30 - last night i took some pics in super difficult at dusk, pre-storm, it was pretty dark and i expected the camera to struggle, but no, the dynamic range was impressive.

there are loads of new things that i really wanted, such as articulated screen, wifi (so remote control with phone, very useful!), and external mic input.

in other words you can't go wrong with this camera. I bought the body only on amazon.fr at steal price -

i could sell the Pentax KX, between the ME super and the Canon A1, + the KS-2 I dont think i will use it much -

Da 55-300 now sold -

If you really want to film you wouldn't buy a k-s2, but if you need a camera to take pictures and a decent video which is my case the k-s2 is perfect. The added levels and overall easier to use camera mode that have been added make it a real improvement - external mic is also a big step up (although I haven't used it). Anyway I am very happy with the video functions.

it had the protector filter pictured since day 1, which i am not including in the sale.

here is a shot taken with it at 300mm wide open.




i've taken less than 100 shots with it, mostly portraits, which i am happy to send via private email

any questions let me know!

hundreds and hundreds on ebay, some might be fake, and still havent found any good deal there - so would rather buy from someone from the forum who i can trust.

hello,
i am looking for a GOOD filter - UV or protector
and possible a polarizer too
thx

too late to edit but it read "mint" condition not "mind"

thanks for clarifying - this all makes sense (was there by default, i removed it)
