Pentax don't make batteries. The Chinese do. The super cheap versions work very well, so why not use them.

I have just ordered one of these

Once its here, I'm going to fit a two cell 2200mA LiPo battery link by cannibalising the insert. I run all of my rechargeable drills on the same things (voltage matched).

I have one original Pentax branded battery, the rest are ten quid third party cells that work fine.

The cheap grip and bigger LiPo will just add a little more cacity.

I am great, how have you been? Are you back to UK or are you still on Arab soil and suffering the consequences of fasting due to Ramadaan . Are you allowed to eat while you are out and about or at work?
Based in Perth, WA. Not seen much of ramadan this year. Colleagues in the Gulf are looking forward to Eid this weekend as they get four days paid leave.

PM sent.

Amazon the best they do is £827.20 wow looks like iam saving up
Amazon, are you mad? Have you never heard of SRS Microsystems?

With free postage to forum members too. There, see, I've saved you better than £60 already.
Only another GBP230 or so to reduce it to the NY price (GBP535) at B&H. I raise this again as were we in Europe the only market to see the jump in prices for photographic equipment?

As for the lens, I did buy mine in the UK from RGB as they were shedding stock and it was GBP489 with full UK warranty. Other than that it is excellent and also works very well with the 1.7AF TC.

What are your thoughts on the sky in Oz Gary? Any difference/s to the colour & light?
Very different atmospherics to UK and Middle East. For some reason that I don't know, evening light is warmer? I will bring back a colour/temperature meter after Xmas and take some readings.

I like 2 as well but it's a shame her hair blends into his hair.

Apologies for (balconies)typo, the US spell checker on this machine has it both ways?

A K7 is GBP562 at Adorama +approx 8.25% state tax if you buy in shop. If your going to NY or have a friend going on holiday it's a good buy.
