My choice would be 3, but without the green to the left which I find a little distracting and doesn't really add anything. There is a nice contrast with the eye colour and hair.

I have had a couple of instances in cold conditions where the K5 has totally frozen and cannot even be switched off. The cure is to remove the grip, remove the battery from the body, re-assemble and everything goes back to normal. Not always terribly convenient in the field!! I am pretty certain, having Googled 'freezing Pentax' that it is caused by static electricity. Each time it happens I have been wearing a synthetic, waterproof jacket. Has anyone got any suggestions for eliminating the static please? Other than dispensing with the jacket, that is
I think we've all had it, but the common denominator to me was always having a grip fitted and a discharged battery in the grip/camera, and the way the batteries were set up to discharge in the menu system. Seemed like a glitch to me switching between power sources. This could be an explanation in this case?

Still available, will listen to close offers or sell without the 18-55WR if anyone is looking for body only.

FS in mint condition, K-5II which has performed flawlessly, 3695 shutter count, 18-55 WR, honestly I don't think I've mounted on the camera. Purchased from Wilkinson Cameras 14/05/13 with 3 yr warranty which I don't know whether is transferable but I have original receipt and will help with anything where I can if something were to go wrong (which is unlikely). I have Pentax F remote, + another, 2 x spare aftermarket batteries. Comes with evertyhing in box as if purchased new. Also have Pentax K T-mount which I'll throw in.

£475 inc RMSD excluding fees.
