Wow, those are certainly 3 strong recommendations on the K3iii's terrific grip! Definitely sounds like the type of camera all of you enjoy carrying around; and will likely have it with you more often then other bodies.

K 3 III fits my hand well especially with the optional battery grip

my hand is wide but I have short fingers I don't like my pinkie not supported by the grip

I have used it with SMC FA Limiteds, the D FA 150-450mm zoom and the DA * 300mm lens

Keep bring up the grip but seriously I’m gonna be perturbed if my pinky hangs off the bottom….

Mine does not and I have relatively large hands for a small guy.

with the battery grip on, no problem

without the battery grip on, the pinkie is below the camera body just waving in the air

The silver grip is said to be more supportive of the little pinky than the black from what I saw on youtube.....

Well, I received the email from Ricoh today.

The "please buy our new camera" email or the "your new camera is shipping" email?

An update on the situation in Australia from the distributers, CRK (in response to my query):

Our first shipment of the Pentax K-3 Mark III is expected to arrive on the 3rd May.
The first shipment of the K-3 Mark III black, silver & black premium kit have now been completely pre-sold, hence the change in the ETA for new orders on our website.

Thanks for checking with CRK.

I ordered a silver body (not premium kit) on 1 April (i think it is the first batch), according to above you mentioned, will it be shipped in the first shipment ?

Thanks

Ugh you’re killing me…I’m sure someone bought the bundle and won’t use the grip and PM to take it off their hands…..
