Hi,
After being a happy owner of a k-x, I decided to upgrade to a k-50 with the 18-135 WR kit. I'm very impressed with both so far.
I'm shortly going on holiday to Thailand and would like to know how good weather sealing is (it'll probably be very humid and I'm expecting quite a few thunder storms!). I've seen plenty of pictures, including on Ricoh's website, with cameras that look soaked, but the manual says to avoid contact with water, dust etc.
Has anybody had any experience of weather sealing problems? Will it be fine in heavy rain?
Thanks in advance.
