Body and 18-55mm now sold

50-200mm still available

Whatever it is they have the lens cap on....

I can't see the next release being significantly more than the current k-5 maybe a k-5 super.

Will be good if they do launch a new camera but I can't see it...

And some photos recently taken with it

Photos as promised

Those rounded blades make for smooth bokeh, I like it...

How does the af compare to the da35 the fastest focussing glass I have..

Only think 24 megapixel will happen with full frame, otherwise I expect roughly same sensor, slightly improved af ala k30 and maybe a bigger frame buffer and faster fps.

My wishes

Extra SD card slot
Better rear screen
Less noise at higher iso

OK through a recent insurance claim I received some Currys vouchers. My k-5 has had to go to Johnsons for some warranty work and was not due back until Friday next week. I had a job booked for this weekend and needed another body, using the vouchers I hoped to get a k-5, unfortunately they no longer can get the k-5 so I ended up buying a k-r twin lens kit. My intention was to sell the lenses to recoup some of the money and then sell the k-r at later date.

However my k-5 has been returned back to me today. I could return the camera to Currys, but they will only give me back the vouchers I used to purchase and I really do need a second k-5 so I am looking to sell to get the cash to buy from SRS.

The box has been opened once to check the contents, which are of course all present.

The camera was purchased on Sunday 5th August so has nearly a years warranty, as the camera was purchased with a gift card, there is no warranty issue as there is no name on the receipt.

Camera cost me £399.97

Looking for £380 including special delivery next day

Payment by bank transfer or deposit please due to the cost in paypal fees I don;t want to lose more than I have to on this.

If someone wants the body only I will take £310 inc special delivery

You could even buy thus take it back to Currys for the refund and use the vouchers for something else if needed.

Just had a look and shutter count is 61139

Very small light scraches around teh body as you would expect but no nicks or chunks missing, some of the writing has worn of some of the buttons delete button faded, info button worn off play button showing wear. The rubber on the rear has faded like they do.

The camera had the shutter button circuit board replaced last year by Asahi Photo whi give the innards a thorough clean and service.

I will also include the LL80 screen along with the original screen for the asking price.

I tried to buy one at the weekend from Currys / Dixons as I had some currys vouchers to spend & the ydid not have any in stock and said where not likely to get anymore either...
