For a little more cash you should be able to get a used k-5 mkii and DA 50mm 1.8 which will be a great starter concert setup.

I guess if it keeps selling and emptying the shelves them no, the price would hold. If not (and why not?) then I'm sure we'd see the discounts. Does this now mean that aps-c ONLY lenses will start to fall in price? And what about the K3, in particular ... Will we see the bargains begin?
The lack of pop-up flash provides an opportunity. Instead of having to use two flashguns', imagine what else might be installed in that (quite big) pentaprism housing..... All kind of communicative gadgetry .... GPS, WiFi, .... Could we dream even for some kind of radio flash trigger system, with on camera controls for the slave flashes Now I really am salivating!

Well, I am now glad to say that the recent impulse buy of a Nikon D750 was returned under the instruction from the boss. To be rewarded by Pentax/Ricoh releasing the FF potential at the end of 2015.
I think a few sweetners for my love will be in the offing throughout the year this year, to ensure me a nice little reward come Christmas
All in the name of research and photography Pentax style of course. To boot the lenses we all buy for our kit, looks like they will be compatible
Back of the net!!!!! 😄
The fact they have also managed to keep the SR in body is an amazing piece of technology.
Can't wait!!!

Sure Gary, but I'm thinking when you say modern lenses for press work, you mean speed and accuracy, you're not really worrying about the angles that light rays hit the sensor are you?
With the increase in sensor resolution older lenses are going to be made even more obsolete and the choice of the skint and the artist photographer.
