Have never even seen one in the flesh.

Suggestions? I’d say to go for something with features and capabilities that the K-01 lacks that way you will have access to “the right camera” in a wider range of situations. I will say that unless I am shooting in particularly challenging light I almost never choose between the K-3 and the K-1 based on image quality. I expect that some of the newer APS bodies are even better. -- Larry Colen [email protected] -- 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.
