Have just tried to get a K5 from SRS, they sold out yesterday.
Given the issues early bodies had I am going to wait until srs get new stock, hopefully in the next few days.
A bit like a young child waiting for Christmass now.

Well, at this price this is an investment more than a cost..... It should be a no brainer
Agreed, unfortunately the seller lives to far away for me to meet up, I think the price may well go up now anyway, I think Longboarder wasn`t aware of the rareity of the siggy in Pentax fit.

In very bright conditions I'll take advantage of ISO 80
Is there a noticable difference in IQ between ISO 80 and say 400 on the K5?

I have a huey pro, think it cost around £75, very easy to use.
Now when I print or I get prints back from shops they look the same as on the monitor.
Would definitely recommend it.

Just wondering;
As a lowly K20 owner I would never go above ISO 400, we have all seen great examples of high ISO shots on the K5, so what is your "base" ISO.
Do you still use the programme mode you used on your old model or has it changed since getting the K5?

photography that I have'nt really done much so far: street candid.

That will explain the heavy crops then Bob

I do like the last shot, while feeling ashamed that I`ve spent all day indoors, despite living 1 mile from where you took the image
Looks like a nice lens.

Hmm, a bit like buying from Jessops then;
The salesperson knows nothing about the product they are selling.
