Great price Mike only down side I see is it only has a 6 month warranty I would have thought a years warranty would have been the real deal.The SRS deal looks very good I have a referb k10 from them and love it.

Pentax are now doing referbished cameras direct from there site in the UK,a k20 will cost you £400 with a 6 month warranty.

I think the Tamron 18/250 would have been an excelent choice of lens for your requierments. I myself will be getting this lens at some point.

Well Im pleased at least somebody did get the camera it seems to me though they just simply missed priced the camera on there website. When I asked re my order they said the offer had run out and were only offering the camera as part of a package deal. Now we see the body can be purchased at £650 strange.
Ian

Seeing you set the thread Mike did you feel it was a con or did you place an order ?.
Ian

Wonder if it would be worth while forwarding this thread to there site and let them see just how upset we all are LOL.

Well I placed and order this morning and had my order confirmd by them at £299.99 body only. This was canceled later in the day by the company staiting there were no longer any stock left. I phoned them later staiting I was intersted in purchasing the gx 20 and asked if it was in stock and was told yes they are in stock. I then let on that in actual fact I had placed an order earlier at the web price body only at £299.99. Her reply to me was that the offer body only was sold out and now they were only offering the camera as a package deal with two lenses. I would be interested to here if anyone actualy did manage to get the camera at the price advertised but I doubt it. I think they made an error with there advertisment and are now covering it up or trying to by saying the origanal deal was sold out.

If you have £500 to spend I would buy the Tamron 18/250 and a pentax 50mm 1.4 for low light and potraits. I have the 1.4 and its a lovely portrait lens if you can get one now.
