FWIW, I don't think the hot-shoe cover design has changed since the PZ-1p. I
probably have more of them than I have hot-shoes to cover.
I found several rummaging around in miscellaneous Pentax stuff at camera stores
when I was looking for the style of real lens caps I prefer.

... shaped like a little top hat with a wide flange where it fits on to the
bayonet.
I still don't understand why someone would pay $50 for a replacement hot-shoe
cover. If you lost the one that came with the camera, aren't you just as likely
to lose the replacement one too?

Sorry chaps, it's probably all my fault. I didn't mean to be a red rag. I simply
said that I was surprised an external charger wasn't included when you are
already paying so much for the camera. Thank goodness it wasn't me who mentioned
the lack of a hot-shoe cover.

Can't you charge the battery using the original K-3 or K-3 II chargers? Or for

As long as the previous versions of the charger work with it, the lack of the
charger wouldn't be a deal breaker for me.
Except.... if you have to sell your existing camera to finance the new, you
are less likely to sell/will command a lower price without the charger.
Dear God, we certainly do our very best to find non existent problems don't we?
If you need more than one battery for a day's shooting, then when you buy your
spare battery, spend the (in my case Can$40.00) for a charger to go along with
it.
If you don't need more than one battery per day of shooting, plug the camera
in before you go to sleep and have a charged battery in the morning.
I really didn't realize this shit was rocket science.
