You're going to *love* the K-1. Great control layout and user interface combined with stunning image quality. I use mine primarily with the FA 20/2.8, the 31/1.8 Ltd and the 77/1.8 Ltd. I also use the FA*28-70/2.8 and 80-200/2.8 from time to time. -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- 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.
