Just looking around for a new K20D body..cheapest I've found so far is SRS/Camerabox at £519 with a 2yr warranty. Anyone know anywhere cheaper by any chance ?
thanks

I rather think North Korea, Iran and one or two others come to mind, I to do not trust the American banking greed factor either

Well Stefan, It is not often that you get items cheaper over the channel
I remember a while ago, you lot over there were moaning about the high prices you were being charged and we were much cheaper, as for the Euro?
I rather think the politicians will vote to keep the UK£.
How do you think the men in the “City” who speculate on currency could make a living (Killing), now if every one in the world had a common currency they would be out of business.

£450 is frankly a stupid price for a 50mm f1.4, especially when you haven't got a f1.7 or 1.8 to sell instead. It's normally the cheapest lens in the range and usually the first one any new user goes for.
Makes the DA* 55 SDM look like a bargain now, think I paid £369 for it!£450 is frankly a stupid price for a 50mm f1.4, especially when you haven't got a f1.7 or 1.8 to sell instead. It's normally the cheapest lens in the range and usually the first one any new user goes for.

Here we go again, "doom and gloom".
That is why Pentax will be bringing out a medium format digital body in the near future, who said Pentax were finnished.

Well as I said on a different thread I was a very lucky lady this morning I phoned SRS and ordered a DA*60-250 and got the last one at the old price, who's a lucky girl then
Have to say I did the same with the Bigma, got the last at the old price, however I am not thinking of selling on and will not be unless something unforeseen happens.

Just wait until the camera gets out on the "streets" then you will get a better idea of how good or bad in some eyes, it is, so far I am pleased even AP had good words to say And that was from A.N. the "Canon woman", well she always drools over them.Tooks wrote:
So, the camera get's what in my opinion is a very good review, and some people still aren't happy!

Danny "Unlocker" gave us a superb preview of the camera, and could not be better.
When the finished body is finally in the shops I will make a special trip to SRS to try it, and I live 140miles away.
And just maybe I will be lighter in the wallet department

If you look at other manufactures prices, you will see the same right across the board they have all gone up, a Nikon D300 body went up over £300, Pentax are one of the last to raise prices and not as much as some.
When I was much younger,that was many years ago, there were cameras and lenses that were just looked at and longed for, but the cost was far to much for ordinary people.
But I have a 60-250mm coming, last but one, (at the old price) thanks Chris (SRS)

I would be willing to bet the prices will start to come back down soon enough. It happened in Canada and it'll have to happen here when sales halt.
