... tilting rear screen ...

That is a feature I would have liked to see, almost persuaded me to buy another make when I got the K7, but then I thought, something else to be accidentally snapped off Not sure how useful a GPS (Tom Tom) would be in a camera.

Looking on Amazon the K5 cash-back offer ends 5 days before the K30 becomes available

Rain this morning but hoping it clears between 1300hrs to 1500hrs for the wedding. If not I may have to test my new "roll up and fit in the pocket" Kagoul.

I think one of the problems I may have is that I have had a claim for accidental damage on the K7. I was considering Jessops again for my next purchase but the two "nearest" stores for collect in store were Leeds and Edinburgh I popped into Jessops Aberdeen this morning but they said they could order one a K5 (they said they didn't really do Pentax)and hadn't even heard of the forthcoming K-30 so it looks like Watford or Bristol mail order

Expect to be buying another camera & lens soon and am wondering about insurance for theft & accidental damage. The last camera I bought was from Jessops and the "extended warranty" I was offered covered for accidental damage (just as well to ). What other companies offer this sort of "in House" deals through a third party or any recommendations for insurance "theft & accidental damage .

Nice, that should be in the gallery Mike, or did you use another brand to take the shot?

+1 from me

To late for the "textures" fortnightly comp but could have been a contender

I got the DA 50-200mm WR as part of the twin lens kit along with the 18-55mm WR. It has a 49mm filter thread. Apart from that and the WR are the lenses the same optically. I've not used it much since getting the 18-135mm. Will try it out this afternoon
