I had that very combination in my hands on Wednesday at my local Camera House store. It felt fine although not as solid as the D, but still tight and with no gaping joints or flexing casings to spoil the feel. The Financial Controller was looking impatiently over my shoulder so it was only a brief impression that I got, but I felt that the combo of that lens and the Ds didn't focus as snappily as the D with a genuine Pentax lens. The viewfinder image was nicely bright and grainless but the focus point guidelines could be distracting. Are they an LCD overlay that can be switched off?
