Still sticking to my K-5. It's a very good DSLR for me.
The ever need for upgrade previously to K-5 was the sub-par AF system of the K200D's.

damn that looks poorly edited. no matter the successor, either K3IIs or FF, I am going to get the K3 once it is cheap.

Good thinking bro............. rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

But the weakening RM is not helping much on the price..... shakehead.gif shakehead.gif

Yes. Something to mate with the re-badge Tamron 24-70 f2.8. After all the delay this camera should be called the Pentax Malaysian Timing.

Cheers and looking forward for the specs..........

True bro.

Especially if you can now get a D600 and pair it with a old Tamron 28-75 f2.8 for about 4k.

Cheers bro........ icon_rolleyes.gif

First rule before buying a Pentax Camera..........

Love the Brand and Not The Camera. laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

And believe in Snapsort that the K-5 is still one of the best APSC DSLR up till now and image quality is better than the Canon 5D Mark II.

Than you will be fine

Pentax K-1 is now up for pre-order here. hmm.gif

Also review of the camera

https://www.ephotozine.com/article/pentax-k...rt-review-28884

What do you guys think?

I think at this price point, for a newcamera with 36mp is unbeatable even after converting to our toilet paper worth MYR. But if don't mind used, then I guess is still a tough choice choosing between the A7R, D800e or even a D810. And if you don't need the 36mp, then I guess is even more difficult to choose between the K-1 or the D750, D3, A7s or a 5D3. Which probably have a better AF tracking system and video.

I guess it only appeals to loyal Pentaxian who wish to upgrade to FF. And I guess is a perfect camera for studio use. Just my 0.6 cents worth. Cheers.....
