Glad to hear you are happy with your K-5iis, Dario. Being disappointed in a purchase is never any fun.
Found this post over on dpreview forum interesting. This guy went from a Sony NEX-7 to a Nikon D600 to a Pentax K-5ii and he is *now* also very happy. http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/post/50892332 Funny, when you find people on this forum feeling they need to move to one of those two very cameras. I think that sometimes we just fall prey to the need for something new and then rationalize the why after the fact. But as long as you have the money and are happy with the decision afterwards, more power to you. I just don't think there can be much argument that the K-5/K-5ii/K-5iis represent Pentax very well at the summit of the best all-things-considered cameras available. That combined with the largest selection of lenses available for any DSLR (when you include all the older Pentax AF mounts, the manual focus K-mount and m42 stuff you can use) still make the choice of a Pentax a no-brainer in my book. Throw in features like the in-body SR and stuff you can't even get on any other system (like the O-GPS1) and Pentax deserves to be the envy of the owners of the other brands, rather than the other way around. I'm very glad that I "bet on" Pentax when I chose my first DSLR, a K200D, 7 years ago. They've improved their position considerably in that time, although not fast enough for some. I just love using the screwmount lenses (Takumars, Flektogon, etc.) and that reason alone would keep me from ever going to a Nikon. (An adapter with an optical element is necessary to achieve infinity focus, as I'm sure you all know). -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
