Yes, Its quite expensive for an APS-C camera. I'm also not trying to promote it, so my apologies for the video. I'm just asking around K-1 users that can basically answer the question: I hear its a lot better for AF than my poor little K-5, but can it AF on a moving bird like this or will it miss too much to be useful in this situation? I'm at a crossroads once again like I was before my K-5 purchase, and at that time, this group was very positive on it. The pic quality is great when I make the shot, but AF is tops on my list given my bad eyesight. What I hear is that its great....
Compared to every other Pentax offering, it's great. I forget, where do you live? Is there anybody with a K-1 in your neighborhood that could let you play with it for a while? If not, I suggest renting one for a few days and give it a try.
Seriously though, I'd say just buy that used one with the 28-105 that someone posted here. At that price, if you don't like it you could get your money back on ebay (or to one of the people on this list).
