The only way to bring prices down is to stop buying, they will soon figure out why.
But i can`t see that ever happening in this country.
I bet the price of the K3 from the factory is around £100/125.

I think you will find that the distributors set the prices, and we just happen to have the greediest one`s in this country.
This is the same for just about every thing that comes out of Japan, cameras/cars/ motorbikes etc.

I would take no notice of people who don`t own the two camera`s you are interest in, only listen to the one`s who do.
Unless you think they are lying to justify there purchase, which some people seem to be inferring.:
I would keep the KR, unless it is holding you back.
IMHO the KR`s sensor produces better images than the 16mp K5 does, unless your interested in taking pictures of black cat`s down mine shafts at large ISO`s.

Has any body used one and is it OK.
I will be using it on a 100mm macro.

It just might be Ricoh, who asked them not to bring them out with K-mounts.
So they sell more Pentax lenses.
