Neato! I'm with you, Christine--the K5 and the DA* 55 f1.4. Bet it's a
doozy of a combination. Cheers, Christine from Chicago

That was fun! The 645D is indeed awesome... but I came home really
wanting a k-5. :) And a 55 /1.4. Getting to see - and touch -- all
that Pentax gear in one place is such a rarity! We were very busy
testing everything, and conducting side-by-side comparisons of all
available models:

I didn't realize that the finish of the colored bodies doesn't have
the spatter texture on them. It's a smooth finish. It doesn't feel
cheap or flimsy, and the plastic has a nice feel to it.
The Beast feels great in your hand and is very well balanced. It
doesn't shoot very fast, and the files are huge (200+MB RAW), but I
want one. :)
Kerrick is a super nice guy, and is obviously an enthusiastic
Pentaxian. The other Pentax staff were also nice and informative.
