What can I say. Superb shot. The light, the tone, the compo. Would love to see it large.

Great job. Especially the color version. Her gorgeous eyes and thoughtful look really stand out in it.

I find them cumbersome and slow. I've had the Pentax branded one for use with the K3II and, well, used it 3 times, got frustrated each time - either with a dropped connection, vanishing files, or just the time needed to do so. I ended up buying an sd card adapter for my Apple devices. It's cheaper and faster, allows me to dump everything onto my phone/tablet and maintain a backup this way, share the jpgs with family on social media etc; in your case, it would be uploading to Dropbox from your phone. There are adapters for every type of smartphone.
Now I have the K1, with integrated wireless, and while it's definitely a smoother and somewhat quicker solution, it's still a hassle compared to the old fashioned way of sd card to whatever medium. You need to switch on the wireless (don't want to keep it on all the time as it drains the battery); connect to the network; if using a new device then input the password; while at it, you are disconnected from Internet unless you are on LTE. And it still much, much slower then physically taking out the card and sticking it whenever.
That said, I have no idea if any of the software allows you to transfer directly to the cloud as I store my images on a private server; don't trust other people's computers all that much
Maybe get a second hand one, every now and then one pops up for 20 quid or so. That way, if it doesn't work, you won't mind too much

Welcome to the forums and good luck with your sales. That said, you may want to keep a little something for yourself!

Great article and examples making it easy to visualize the differences. I do love your water photos

Something slightly different and more lighthearted with less emphasis on picture quality and more on capturing that crucial, comical moment in time
