The K-5 will have been out, a bit over, a year next September. The K-3, or whatever it'll be called, will have been announced sometime after the previous August, with a ship dated not far in the future. Then is the time to look to look to buy a K-5. Every Pentax DSLR I've bought I've paid ~ $600USD for. The only problem I've had is everyone else talking up the latest and greatest, but you know, even the *ist-D, which has reached paperweight status, as far as monetary value is concerned, still takes great pictures...

Thankfully, I don't feel like I should or even must  update from K-7 to K-5 or
to Canon 5DMk2 or whatever. I kind of used to feel  that way having seen Paul's
comparison shots from his basement.

I also  think that to say that camera A offers revolutionary improvements in IQ
dept  over camera B (*) would be a serious overstatement or simply a market
speak.

Well, at least I had my chance to vent.

(*) As  long as both A and B are of similar general class. It stands to reason
that  16x24 and 24x36 cameras are closer than it might have seemed  initially.

So, it seems that Boris is fighting for the 'Disabler of the year' award...
;-)

(A bit more) seriously speaking, owning a K20D there are some additional reasons
to upgrade in my case...but I am still not 100% sure that they are enough.
Maybe when the K-5 costs 200 EUR less than today I see things
differently...everyone has a price...

Regards,
Jaume
