There are limits though, and once someone leaves the fold then it's fine if they stay here, and welcome, but they need to keep their contributions marque-neutral after that.

Please note we don't do links to other marques either, sorry, but please remember this is Pentax User.

Many thanks.

A Pentax K-50 with the 18-270mm zoom would cover almost all travel requirements and wouldn't be excessively bulky would it? It would knock your compact for six in terms of quality and even ease of use.

You have the small one Steve. The Large version is 10.5cm deep.

Back on topic please guys, although I'm sure considering that we have no idea what the "K-3" might be and never have, it's been well covered quite a few times.

As always, when something finally does appear it's always fascinating to see how close or far from the mark the speculators proved to be. Then we move into the "it's the end of all things/it's far too expensive" mode!

Indeed, there's a wrist strap but no shoulder strap.

Most important though, I would have welcomed a proper charger rather than a power adapter.

Unfortunately, that would be outside Pentax User's ground rules Dodge69, other marques are not within the forum's remit.

Can't see Pentax replacing the K5 II until they have their hands on and fully evaluated the 24mp Sony chip that Nikon use in the D7100.
I'd be pretty sure that Pentax have had their hands on lots of chips that we don't even know about yet. I would expect plans for new DSLRs are in motion many months, sometimes years, before they finally get released. They wouldn't be telling anybody though, it would be a commercial secret for as long as possible.

The GR is the first compact I've used that genuinely gives DSLR quality, but it's not as versatile or as easy to use as a K-5 or similar.
