When you speak of blinky lights, I think you are thinking of the K-S1, not the K-S2. Speaking of which, the K-S1 with kit lens is only $199 (after $100 rebate) at Samy's: Blinky lights aside, that's a seriously stupid price for a 20MP camera with 5.4 fps and an optical viewfinder. The K-S1 also can take advantage of the 16 GB Pentax FLU-card for tethering to your phone or tablet via web browser. That's a crazy amount of features available for the money. I've got half a mind to sell my K-01 and upgrade to the K-S1 as my back-up camera. http://www.dxomark.com/Cameras/Compare/Side-by-side/Pentax-K-S1-versus-Pentax-K-01___971_783 That doesn't tell the whole story however. The K-S1 can also bracket up to 5 EV (K-01 is 3EV) and has a faster shortest shutter speed (1/6000) to the K-01's 1/4000. Also the maximum ISO doubles the K-01. -- Life is too short to put up with bad bokeh. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
