Just got a silver 31mm from amazon uk, it's a made in Japan version for those interested.

Well done... what was the price like?

I believe the new ones are now made in Vietnam. That was probably left over stock...

Quite a lot: 870 pounds. I wanted to buy local in case I had to send it back etc. and yes it was probably leftover stock...

Did you think it was a Canon or something? Those K-7 silver limited bits are certainly not plastic, but metal. It matches the silver lenses great.

I stand corrected. Though I still think the different textures of the camera body, buttons and the lens make them clash. But I suppose that's down to personal taste.
