Hi........have been lusting after a FA 31 for a while now........a month or so ago I got a FA 77. The FA 31 is about $1,100 Australian new over here or about $800 secondhand when you occasionally see them. I know they are to be updated at some stage this year however it's unlikely this will matter to me given the likely changes and my intended use (I have a HD DA 21 & 40 anyway). I figure that the retail price (if pentax look to clear the old ones out) won't go down below about $950 US, and the new ones will be at some "sought of premium" as per the HD's when they were introduced. The Aust $ is only at 90c US at the moment so buying from the US isn't worth it.
Am I missing anything or should I just go for it? I have put a listing in the wanted section for a used one.
Basically I'm a fellow pentaxian with LBA needing re-assurance!
