I have a K10D with Kit lens and grip, all in working order.
I don't expect it would make a lot at re-sale and to be honest I would much rather it went to someone who is passionate about photography but unable to fund a camera.
Do we know of such an individual?

I may need some persuading here, but I am of the old mindset that ISO 125 was fine and 400 was grainy and fast, when using (usually Ilford) BW film.
How does this relate to ISO settings now? The digital numbers are so big that they seem wrong.
In today's digital world what do the old film speeds equal?

Images straight out of camera.
Pros and cons?
I always retouch, crop or Photoshop mine in some way.

Seriously, I was hoping to sell them on here to a fellow Pentax enthusiast, but it's starting to look like ebay.

Still open to offers and will take into account ebay fees.

Fuji are pretty great with their free firmware feature upgrades too.
From what I have seen they take on board customer feedback with regards to where improvements are needed, and they release firmware updates to address this as opposed to releasing a new improved model.
This approach is refreshing and very much appreciated by Fuji users. Other manufacturers should take note.

(apologies for going on about Fuji on a Pentax forum)

I like this....

As a side issue Nokia are due to re-release its iconic 3310 mobile phone. I'm sure it will be a great success as it was first time around. Would be very nice if Pentax could go down a similar route and reintroduce the original MX (or even a Spotmatic) in digital form.

Fujifilm are doing a great job with their cameras when it comes to re creating manual operation. Ive bought an XT1, its like having my ME Super back in digital form but better. I'm using it with my original Pentax glass, all fully manual.
