The lack of onboard GPS is a pain. I never remember the O-GPS to tag my files.

The next big question... silver or black? I wouldn't mind a nice leather strap and an extra battery but I hate grips so the premium edition is not tempting to me. Is the D-LI90 the same battery as the K-3 Mark I?

I went on the Talkphotography forum and everyone told me to buy Canon or Nikon because Pentax would be bankrupt within a year so I came here, saw some macro shots taken with the K10D and the rest is history.
I almost bought a Canon but some snotty sales assistant in the shop annoyed me so much I walked out without buying anything. A couple of months later my then girlfriend (now wife) showed me a review of the K10D and, amongst other things, the fact I could use my old glass on it had me reaching for my wallet. The rest is history...

Ah I was wrong about the K100D I thought it came out more or less the same time as the K10D. And I thought the K100D Super was the variant that gained SR.

But the K10D was not released in 2008, that I am sure of, as I bought mine in 2007, wikipedia says 2006 for the K10D. The K20D came out in 2008.
I bought mine in 2007 too. My first dSLR...

I think you forget that I am a Pentax user and therefore stuck in the dark ages, it is for that reason I don't have a Facebook account
Ditto. 😕

Don't forget the mirror bumper. When that goes the mirror starts flinging sticky bits of foam all over the inside of your camera and they are a pain to get rid of, especially on the focusing screen.

the launch price sounds pretty high, hearing >$2000 near EU2000, which would be a deal breaker for me
Wait a few months, it'll come down. It always does.

Very slightly tender spot on my arm and slept deeply but other than that no side-effects.

A well-known camera tech in the US always uses yarn for door seals, so it gets a big thumbs-up.
