Live view on the k20d is basic and shuts off after 3 minutes. I would read up on the live view mode before choosing the k20d. I have a micro 4/3/s Oly E-PL5 and a Lumix GX8. These mirrorless cameras make IR easy. I have a k20d and a Kx. Seems the Kx would be the better choice but I don't need another IR camera but I want to use my Pentax lens. I had the Gx8 converted because I wanted a brighter LCD and it has a bright electronic viewfinder also. I have a new K3II and some very fine lens but have spent most of my time doing IR and learning to use GIMP. I love IR like I loved the old B&W film days. Both have instant surrealism which I think is harder to achieve with color. These days any digital image can be made surreal but all of the mundane subjects I am tired of are new again in IR.

Is anyone using Windoze 10 yet? If so, how do you like it & is it any good for running PhotoshopCS6 Extended? I don't use Lightroom or CC. 2. If you had to choose among an *ist-D, a K10D or a K20D to convert for IR, which would you sacrifice? Who would you choose to do the conversion? -- Science - Questions we may never find answers for.
