Hi, I just clicked that link and notice 1.02 is now available.

So thought I'd post for anyone else interested & not aware - it seems it adds compatability with SDXC memory cards. Useful if you do a lot of video I guess.

Chris M,

Still in stock at Amazon at 12.99 and the one I ordered on the 3rd arrived today

To be boring I would also say use your 35 - at least for a while.

I bought a FA 35/2 a few years ago for DOF stuff and indoors but now it's the lens that is attached to the body by default whenever we go out. It really only comes off if we need to go telephoto.

Only time I would look beyond that is if you 'walkaround' the countryside a lot and need something wider for landscapes.

Jacqui,

I'm sure you don't want to hear from me as the XXXX who beat you to Glovers k-x but as our household has both a K10D and now a k-x I thought I would back up people saying the k-x spec. probably seems to match your needs better.

My hubby would not swap his K10 for anything other than a K20 because he loves the weight in his hands and it is a perfect fit ergonomically - all the buttons lie just where his fingers naturally fall.

I fell in love with the k-x for exactly the same reason - for my hands which seem about half the size of his I never got on with the K10 just too big and heavy for me.

So, definately don't buy any body until you have played with it.

Personally, unless I was in a rush I wouldn't pay £359 for a k-x body, I would wait until 1. someone dropped their price to get rid of their final few, 2. another secondhand appeared here or on srs 3. the k-r is likely to drop in price over the next few months wait for that.

But you may be in a rush...

Glover - thanks I went for Amazon not only re stock but also as I have had problems with Play over returns (even when they sent me the wrong item) whereas Amazon are always exemplary.

I have the day off today so will be getting to know the k-x a little - then it is going into storage until my birthday at the start of March. At least that's the plan

Thanks Algi - I usually play safe and stick with Sandisk whose cards have always behanved perfectly for us, but this does look a good price.

Anyone know 'top of the head' if the Samsung 8Gb SDHC Class 6 ones on Mike's link should work OK in a k-x ? I have just bought Glovers k-x and need a card but not yet had time to read the manuals etc. to check compatability

I'd support that. I think you Gareth have had the sense to make the font size small so that it doesn't take up much room.

I know there are good legitimate reasons for a very long list but as a female I can't help but wonder if for some blokes displaying a very long list of kit is a bit similar to driving a bright sports car (esp. in middle age), if you know what I mean

I agree that some are just tooo looong.

We don't have much kit anyway and I have I kept the lens stuff to the absolute minimum for people to know what I am using. e.g. I think if I write 50-200 people know enough and don't need Pentax DA 50-200 f.3.5 - 6.7 (or whatever it is)

I'm not adding what bags, filters etc etc. Just enough that if I engage in a thread people can see what I am using in case it is relevent to the reply.

thanks.
