I rather doubt that the 60-250 will be available in six-seven months.
In any case, if you want to rely on auto-focus, you should get the
K10D - with the more powerful focus motor it will operate faster than
any of the earlier models, even before the DA* SDM lenses come along.
I've shot kid's
I think (and hope) that's a bit of an overestimate.
I'd guess that 2x the (current) price of the K10D is
the upper end of the price range, and it may even end
up just a little cheaper than that. After all, the
FA* 80-200/f2.8 (with a larger front element than a
60-250/f4) didn't cost that much.

Perhaps you could pair with John Francis and come up with nice GUI and
