How you finding the size?

For me that's the only big negative... but I've never owned/used it

Probably worth looking at WEX second hand... some K-5 mk1 and K-30 at very good prices.

The K-5 mk1 will still be a massive leap in sensor performance.

Its a massive step up.

I went from K-7 to K-5iis. Most of it is the same, controls body etc. the K-7 was good in that regard.

The big improvement is the sensor. Its a different league.

The K-7 could perform very well in good light and conditions. The K-5iis will make the best of any situation.

Fast glass helped to keep the ISO low on the K-7 which was crucial IMO (it struggled above 800).

The K-5iis smokes it at any ISO and you worry less about ISO perhaps.

It’s obvious that the K-3 II is a camera that’s designed for the discerning photography enthusiast who knows what they’re doing and appreciates the set of features it has to offer. It’s not without faults, but it represents good value and a superb feature set that you can’t get from other manufacturers.

I've used them 3 times now with 0 problem.

They have a physical shop in central London.

Imports are clearly stated as such IMO.

yeah the 50-135mm is very good..

I went up a mountain in May with it... not sure I'd take it up a mountain again!

Things like 55-300mm WR, 18-135mm 16-85mm 20-40mm might be better for that

as said 55-300mm ... preferably the new HD WR if you can
