Events today conspired me to purchase a replacement for my D-FA 100

Is the new WR better built that the original as it snapped too easily today. Replacement depends on what JPSS or G&H say...

PM sent

You mean like the Arca Swiss Plate plate John?

I have the Benro one for my K-5 & 150-500 and it works very well.....

What people will want to know:

How many shutter clicks on the K-7
Is the 16-50 new or as new - any SDM issues

specifying your location would be useful, and is postage included in the price? Can the items be split.

May help with the sale

that would tempt me too...

If you want the build of the K-3 in the Nikon DX range - you have to go for the elderly 12MP D300s - no news of D400, so those APS-C users will have a lens upgrade path to contend with when going from DX to FX

For Canon - their top APS-C camera is of course the 7D, I hear most owners moaning about the low light performance and clamouring for a 7D2.

I bought a D3 4 years ago, I still prefer using my Pentax gear.

Simple answer, get the K5ii/S or K3 - grass ain't greener on the other side

what a beauty but alas I have already the DA*300 otherwise I would have come to collect it.....

looks familiar

24-90 FA?

EXIF data does not tell me much

Welcome,

Many of the recent Pentax DSLRs are weather resistant so there are no issues there.. but be warned weather resistant does not mean water proof.

It all very much depends on your budget - all K-series models bar the K100/K110/K100D Super have some weather protection..and you can use all your older lenses on them with no problem, you just have to enable use of the aperture ring in the menu....

The classifieds give you a good idea of the price of cameras so you will have a good idea what you can afford... most of the current members will tell you the K10D and K20D remain excellent cameras, but newer models are better in many ways...
