Hi,
Joined recently (~2 months ago) - not had time to do a 'proper' intro. Been a Pentax DSLR user since Dec '07 - before then my SLRs were all Olympus. Reason for joining the Pentax fold was I was asked to be a stills photographer for a filming trip to Costa Rica on the strength of photos I took with a Canon S2 IS. I wanted to offer higher quality & I also had a limited budget - which fairly much dictated a K100D super. Had a load to learn, but the upshot was the camera withstood tropical rain, tropical humidity and topical application of rough treatment - and the customer was very happy. Now I'm up to a K20D (I may get a K7 but TBH the K20D does everything I need and more) with a K200D and K10D as backups.
My only complaint is that I have serious glass fever - so at any time I have a lens on order from SRS and a pending threat of divorce if I order another .
Anyways - good to see a better mannered forum than the Pentax DSLR forum on DPReview - which can get a bit trollish. Hope to make more posts in the future.

Pretty cool. Inspires me to take out my second least used lens (10-17 too) and let it see some light. No. 3 is my favourite BTW.

There are also a few russian tlit/shift lenses currently being made in a pentax mount, but I can't recall the names. Perhaps somebody else can.
Ebay is probably your best bet.
