Hi there... its been a while since i have posted on here but i've ran into a problem lately.
I cant keep thinking that i should trade in my d3 for a k5, but im not sure if i should.
With the d3 i have some older f2.8 zooms/fisheye (so no shake reduction), i have basicly got similar lens on the pentax side (da* 50-135 f2.8, sigma 24-60 f2.8) The only thing i would miss is the fish eye (is there a good pentax fisheye that comes close to the 16mm f2.8 on the nikon side?)
As for the bodys, i believe the k-5 is way more advanced in many ways over the d3 (hell my gx10 is in some ways to). I like popup flash (for triggering flash's), id like the inbuilt AF lamp, shake reduction, more advanced options and in camera processing and hell even the video would be nice... the size reduction is one of the main things im looking forward to.
But is it worth changing from the d3 to the k5?, The main thing that's putting me off is losing that full frame sensor, and some of the features like interval timer (can the k5 do that?), the 3d focus tracking is nice too and the large bright viewfinder (makes manual focus really easy).
I shoot a verity of things, from portraiture, partys, some concerts, stock photography and next year i have a few weddings and i enjoy landscapes. (some shots below)
I curretly have a gx10, gf1 (with 20mm f1.7 and a pentax adapter) and the d3.
What would any of you do..?
