Looking at your sig., I'd also sell the DA 18-55, DA 17-70, and the Sigma 70-300mm. I'd replace the low FL lenses with a DA*16-50, and maybe even replace the DAL50-300mm with a DA*60-250.

Pentax then solved the problem and cameras shipped from calendar week 50 2010 were free from the string of pearls.
Return it to Warehouse Express stating not fit for purpose and claim a refund/replacement.

WEX = Warehouse Express, they should change/refund it easily enough.

I wanted the better ISO and AF performance of the K-5 and so sold my K-7 to fund the purchase.
ISO is far superior, AF not so much imo .. everything else is just fluff.
If the high ISO/DR is not important then go for the K-7 and lens.

[quote="Pentax Forums"]Today there was a post on a German discussion forum.
This user talked to the main pentax authorized repair shop.
Apparently they have got the new firmware for the K-r (and I guess K-5 too) which solves the FF issue. According to them, it definitely solves the FF issue and will be available to the public in 2 weeks.[/quote]Good news if its true.

I messaged again 03/03/2011 - 16:10 and Chris did reply and said he'd call Pentax in the morning ( today, 4th march ) and let me know what they say.
