I am sure there are still many happy satisfied Canon 40d and Nikon D80 users about, its so easy to be sucked into "needing" the latest model which is why you see a fair few 'downgrading' for sale ads on the web.. no point buying a Ferrari to just nip into town once a week.

ISO, af speed/accuracy and fps are important to me as a main camera so a K5II was the obvious choice and was looking at a K7 as a back up but went for the K30 instead.

I would imagine in some situations no camera would outshine the other

Last bump for ths k30 and lens, no more price drops, I do want to downsize my back up k30 to a Q but cannot bare the thought of losing any more money on it.

I should point out the K5 was on 10M size as it always is
Why?

It's kind of like using only half of the camera.

You can't get the best out of the camera at 10M.
mmm not sure I agree with that, dropping the mp from its highest will give a longer(and more consistent)burst rate because the buffer empties quicker.. I have read debates on it handling low light noise better too although I am not convinced by this and have never noticed it in the real world like I have with the 1st point.
