Tim, if you are eventually going to upgrade to a K-5, and you can afford to do it now, then the money you save by waiting for the price to drop will not be worth the frustration you'll pay by using the K-20 rather than the K-5 in the meantime. I don't know how much of the K-5 was produced in the area affected by the recent events, but the Japanese economy has taken enough of a hit, that I don't see supply of DSLRs outstripping demand in the near future, and the price is very likely to take a temporary upturn. Alternatively, you could get most of the performance by buying a K-r, but then you'll likely find yourself needing to carry both bodies, one for when you need performance, the other for when you need features. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
