LOL - same here. I so rarely win anything I'd be a bit shocked.

That said, if I do enter and if I did win it, I'd keep and use it alongside my current one.

Or you could donate it to the cause of bettering the world of amateur astrophotography and Opensource driver development!

I would sell the camera to a Nigerian prince for $37,000,000USD, who would then gift the camera back
to me in exchange for a relatively small fee. That way I can assist an unjustly persecuted royal, because
they need our help.

If that should fall through, I would most certainly keep the camera and put it to good use. Time will tell
whether I continue to use my beloved K-3.

Best answer I've read today.

I will gladly use it to make my FA 31ltd shine!

Martin G. · 08-29-2018, 09:16 AM

Keep it and maybe upgrade my existing K-1

**ffking** · 08-29-2018, 10:33 AM

I am constantly partially re-thinking my philosophy of living. Probably not the same thing, though.

I don't have the need for a second K-1, though, selling my K-5 and K-3 and have another K-1 as backup would be wonderful. I'd probably sell it to fund my much need LBA. I really need that DFA 70-200.

2.8 or 4?

Use it! I've been waiting for a Pentax full frame digital camera for a long time. The only thing that has held me back is the price.
