Abstract K3 or not K3 that is the question?

K3 or not K3 that is the question? · 05:03 PM

The last few weeks I have tried the K7,K3,645Z,K5 and the K-01. Everybody I know is crazy for the the K70. The last Pentax camera I purchased was K1000 film 30 years ago. I have really enjoyed the K3 and am I considering the Silver Edition. I like how it feels, the grip with the extra battery and two SD cards. I have not tried the K1 yet. Any advice would be appreciated.

You should consider the K-3ii as the K-3 has stopped receiving firmware upgrades.

O Just sold my K-01, K-5 and K20D in preparation for getting a K-1, but, I already have a K-3, which I'm keeping. All the features of the K-1 I like, , GPS, Tilting back screen, and Pixel Shift, at least those are the features I don't already have. The K-70 has two of the three Pixel shift and tilt screen, if you don't need GPS, it might be for you. The K-3? NO tilt screen, no Pixel shift, no GPS, but a great camera.

Nice looking dog... be sure and post in, "the place to post" for pet lovers.
