Likely not but it doesn't matter around PF obviously.

No it really is, weather has been so-so in my neck of the woods. Can't wait to get out to use it more.

Congrats, I think you will love it. I really like my black DA Limtied lenses on my black KP including my DA15. Awesome pairing with the KP congrats.

Sure think you have. Pentax is a lot about function and style following function. However the KP and a 15 Limited is pretty darn stylish in my book. Welcome to the good side the APS-C sensor should sure be a nice jump from 4/3. Let us know your thoughts on Pentax APS-C and your KP after you shoot some with your new KP. Again welcome to the good side.
