asking because when I moved from the K-50 to the K-3, I noticed immediately the difference in grip, the K-3 being beefier and much more comfortable in getting a grip on the camera that is unshakeable...
I've not handled either a K-50 or a K-70, but I did have the K-S2 for about a year and a half. The grip is definitely different - narrower, sharper, less molded to the hand - but I never felt like I was going to drop it. I have relatively small hands, though. I heartily agree that the K-3's grip is far superior. Love the way that camera feels in the hand.

The K5 and K3 have both felt really good to hold. The K3 slightly better. That said, I don't have a problem with my recently acquired K01 which is reckoned to be awful...

I routinely use my GX-1 panasonivmc and it has a terrible grip design. But the lenses are tiny (slower m43 not fast ones) so less demand is put on how the camera fits my hand. Shooting my k-3 is much more ergonomic. This is particularly true on larger lenses like the DA* 60-250.

The grip on a K-01 is to me more comfortable than a K-70
The K5 is the best of my grips

Completely forgot about themes yesterday, but looking at Minimonster's post again, and his photo post for the 5th, I now understand the significance of his suggested 5 and/or 50 .

I'll make an effort to target VEHICLES next Sunday (12th).

Theme Day: Sunday August 12: Vehicles

Minimonster suggested several theme days at the beginning of the month, and I know these often appeal to some of the group. So just a reminder that the second of these is VEHICLES, slated for this Sunday August 12.

Theme Day: Sunday August 19: BOKEH

Minimonster suggested several theme days at the beginning of the month, and last week's seemed to get reasonable support, so a reminder that the third of MM's suggestions is BOKEH, slated for this Sunday August 19.

It is 11 P.M at the moment and i should be sleeping already. my girl likes to wake up early See you guys at october, after most of my deadlines are over(for now)...
