I'm now thinking about a new camera body and the K3 ii looks like it.
My question is, have other members here seen any seasonal change to prices as such?
I know that this is a new camera and so the price will drop as time passes but I wonder when that might happen and, for example, if I wait until after Christmas there might be a drop in prices generally?
From previous experience this hasn't been the case - depending on the exchange rate prices for Pentax lenses, for example, have bounced around over the last few years.
However, I'm still amazed that I only paid £525 for my 12-24 and that was in a January, even allowing for inflation.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I went to see the Oracle at Delphi recently and when I got there, there was just an old lady sat there wearing a wimple. So I said "Who are you?"
And she said, "I am Nun, the wiser".

I'm interested... Shall I just bid on EBay, or will you sell directly?

Coming late to this discussion. My K10 produces good quality images and I generally use it with manual lenses. As previously mentioned the old type sensor produces excellent smooth images up to iso 400.

Yes, I still have my K10D and Samsung GX10. I'd like better high ISO performance, but can't justify upgrading. I'll wait until one breaks.Coming late to this discussion.

John is quite right IMHO - I print up to A3+ and have some wonderful prints at this size from my K10D. Especially good is almost anything from the Pentax 12-24 and the 100 macro.
BUT, if I have to crop significantly (or ever print at A1 or bigger) then there simply aren't enough pixels available.
I'm now looking hard at the K5IIS - just need the money!
