Hi, Firstly, I still do not own a K-x, although I'm planning to get one as my backup(!) camera as soon as the winds of economics blow my way ;-) I routinely get to shoot with a K-x because the local distributor lends them to me :-D Whatever apparent weakness the K-x has (no focusing points) has never been a problem with me nor the 'smaller' VF posed any limitations. That said, I have yet to use it with a manual focus lens although I used my FA 80-320 on it focusing manually (it is a chronic focus hunter...). I have no complains although I can foresee myself eventually getting a katzeye for it (I have a cheap split screen on my DS and a katzeye on the K10D). I guess the K10D is about the same as the K20D; I put the K-x at par with both of them (I have to look at the numbers again, I mean the viewfinder size). I foresee myself using it a lot with my 135s (K 135/2.5 & A 135/2.8) so that is sort of an issue for me as well.
