Aw Marnie do not mock my beloved K-01. It is my carry-around back-up and
often main camera. Never fails to take good photos and with a small or
pancake prime is very compact & light. One feature I think is overlooked
is the shape has flat surfaces -instant tripod horizonal & vertical. I
used it just last week when the light went away to take some 1-15 sec
time exposures by setting it on a flat surface. Works even with a short
tele. How much was it on ebay? No no I can't afford another camera.

I am not sold on any bridge camera, but if I get Pentax, I think I will go
for the MX-1.
Mainly because it supports RAW files. There are tons of nicer compact
cameras out there, some pretty pricey, some not. Many of the ones people have
suggested to me. But I am coming from a specialized place of starting from
another brand of DSLR to begin with and wanting a Pentax to get in the PUG
occasionally and the annual. It looks like the MX-1 is doable. OR... Heh, I
just found it on ebay, the K-01. (Think I was off list when that debuted.)
The MX-1 is cute and retro, and K-01 is downright funky.
