You read the manual? thats me got some reading material for a bit now.
well pleased with it, nice solid feeling camera.
I just get stuck in and set the camera up as I like it then snap away, I tend to use the manual for reference only
Mind I read the online version well in advance of buying a new camera.

K200D at PC world is the same price, but the display model has a Mk11 lens fitted.
SRS are still the best bet at the moment

After the last upgrade on my K110 I removed the card and formated it for use.
It was only two days later, and some miles from home that I found I hadn't replaced it in the camera.
So many lost shots because the camera didn't tell me it had no card!
Come on Pentax, a little icon to let us know the card is missing/ door is open would make life easier for us forgetfull users.

Mobile phones have a place in modern society, as far as I'm concerned it's as far away from me as possible.
I use one at work and hate calls when I'm in traffic/ talking to customers/breathing!
I use a small sony camera on aircraft and never thought I'd get away with my DSLR, well done Terry, great shots

Terry,
What a great tribute to the often maligned MK1 KIT lens!
Well done!
I use my 18/55 an awful lot and love the fact that it betters any other 'kit' lens out there.Terry,

After all, when you buy a camera it should do what Terry's did straight out of the box,
and my vote is pic 2 as well.

If you really want to appear mad, wear your underpants on you head, push a pencil in each nostril and answer all questions with "Wibble"
It works for me!
Oh yes! welcome Rataegeoff.

That explains the strange colours I get!soap in the Brillo pads leaves a residue that gives a pink cast to my pictures.
Maybe next time I should use the steam cleaner at work!

Strange that it's taking upto a month this time.
Last cash back was when I bought my K200d and the cheque arrived in less than two weeks!
Maybe more people are taking advantage and moving to the best cameras available!

I use a Lens Pen to clean the sensor on my K110 with no problems.
As beakynet advises activating the sensor shake option works on my K200, I would think that holding the body of your K10 flat, sensor down, and 'shaking' the sensor should work.
Failing that there's always hot water and a Brillo pad!!!

There are other more subtle advantages also such as being able to remove/replace the focusing screen for a custom item (massive improvement to camera when using manual focus lenses) ...the K10 is much easier to hold and can take a grip which even greater improvement to ergonomics especially with large lenses.
I had the same dilema and went for the K200, the cash back deal made and still makes a big difference
Forgot to mention, as a new user the K10d could be a bit daunting, the K200d is aimed at just this level.
