One thing I like very much over the D, is the grip. They twisted one of the batteries in order to enhance the right hand grip. It's very nice - a litle like that of the MZ-S. It feels so much nicer than the grip on the D, which has a quite un-ergonomic design, that doesn't correspond with the shape of fingers.

Pentax did not let me down! I bought it at Cityfoto in Eindhoven Holland. They are not directly related to Cityfoto in Breda and considerably cheaper. Some internet shops in Holland are slightly cheaper, but I prefer a "real shop".
