Originally posted by Gold Coast reading on this forum and else where as to seems to be quite a few problems with it.
I acquired a K-3 II several months ago, and have had no issues whatsoever. I was using a K-5 II previously.
Prior to buying, my detailed research on this forum and others revealed very few problems and no major ones. In fact, I concluded that the K-3 II is a robust, ergonomic camera that can produce excellent images.
The omission of a built-in flash has been well documented and discussed, but I wouldn't classify this as a 'problem'. Another often-discussed subject concerns the higher-ISO noise performance (i.e., 'more noise at higher ISOs' compared to the K-5 series). Again, I don't see this as a problem, as my post-processing tames noise rather well, and others have noticed virtually no difference in comparable printed images.
The in-depth reviews here and at Imaging Resource give generally positive accounts.
