Missed a cracking D200 but like the K20 weatherproofing and shake reduction so hung back.
I would be grateful for comments on these two/

Fair comment but this finding below is very off-putting.
From the summary of the K-R review on Dpreview
Like the K-x the K-r has a habit to clip highlights which is made worse by a tendency to overexpose high contrast scenes. Shooting RAW can only mitigate the problem to a degree, as the the K-r also only offers relatively little in terms of RAW headroom and you usually won't able to recover a lot of highlight detail by applying negative digital exposure compensation. The best solution is to apply 2/3EV or so of negative exposure compensation when shooting.
Rare statement in camera reviews today, in my opinion, but happy to be corrected
