The K20D was manufactured on 29th May 2008 and the shutter count is 34,005.

Hope that helps!

I'm assuming you might take the K20D as "better" in that it's newer and has a 14.6MP sensor. The K10D is the last of that line to use a CCD, and some do prefer that in some ways, but that's debateable I think.

I'll take a picture and check the number of actuations and get back to you shortly.

When we upgraded to the K-5 a few years ago, the K10D and K20D bodies went to my brother-in-law and his wife. Now they have upgraded to the K-3 II they have come back to me, and are now on offer. The K10D was originally mine, the K20D was originally Sue's. I haven't checked the shutter count yet, but nothing too out of the way I'm sure. Both cameras are in very fine condition, obviously showing some use, but very, very clean and with no paint rubbing or damage at all. Very bright and clear, fully operational in every respect, shown a high degree of care during their lifetime and really as good as we can get for these models. Both are boxed with all accessories and the K20D has an extra original Pentax battery as well.

Prices negotiable, but I suggest £75 for the K10D and £125 for the K20D, both to include UK tracked shipping. A UK only sale.

The FAJ 75-300mm works very well with the K-1.

Try experimenting with the Search options. This enables us to narrow down the criteria. The exact wording as well can be made more specific as appropriate. maybe "400-600mm lens" would be a start.

If you search Amazon by putting in film scanner 35mm you will get a wide choice of inexpensive scanners that will do the job. I wouldn't attempt to scan all the slides - just the ones you want to use as you go along. Eventually you will build up a folder full of your best images.

There are other methods, but the scanners cost so little and they do a reasonably good job.

I think it's quite hard to double-guess what they were trying to achieve, although it would be interesting to see their images. That's the only way we'd know for sure.

A great set of images.
