just got a used k30, well hardly used as its only showing 1755 as the file number and it looks factory fresh, along with a da*16-50 and da* 50-135 (both used but you could never tell). traded an olympus om-d to get the pentax gear.

nice to be back to pentax, sad I sold my *Ist D many years ago

Both DA* lenses are great lenses

Got one.

Count me in as well. Mine arrived this afternoon. I bought a used one in LN condition from KEH. So far I like it.

EDIT: Had to send mine back. It was defective.

my two buddies ^^
mated with the DA*300 F4 (white) and the 16-50 F2,8

My black K-30 18-55 WR kit showed up yesterday. :-)

manojjoseph78 · 07-16-2013, 10:43 PM

Got mine as well. Thanks to the offer from Hunt's. With the WR kit lens.

I got a red one 6 days ago for 550AUD. It goes well as an adjunct to the K01. So far I've hardly taken my recently acquired Tamron 28-75/2.8 off it (but I usually also have the K01 + something wider, eg Pentax 21/3.2, along with me). Because of my K01 addiction (I have 3 of them) I find I'm using live view on the K30 a fair bit, but it's nice to have a choice. I love the K30/ Tamron 28-75 combination!

got mine today from Hunts ($499 blowout price)
Charging batteries as I type!

Count me in again. I bought one off a forum member and so far it works perfectly.

Colbyt · 08-03-2013, 03:04 PM

As is normal, I was late to this party. Mine came last Tuesday and I am really impressed.

Hi

Just one little question. I am buying the K30 in about two weeks. I don't want the black one. I am in doubt between the white one and the blue one. Which one looks better in real? I can't find it anywhere to compare... Is the blue one too blue? It looks like it as it seems to be metalic blue..

It is very blue and it has a metallic look (like a metallic car paint) but it does look good. I really like mine.
