Hello from MI

Hello, Just purchased my first DSLR a Pentax K30, cant wait, received the tracking number this morning. My photographic interests are Reefs/Fish, landscapes and street. I currently own a olympus OMD and GF3, micro 4/3rds. I know the nut behind the camera makes the pictures, I just struggle with the micro 4/3 with anything that moves. When I take pictures of fish it just seems like I can't get the good shots I could get with my old cannon p&s. So I want to try out the Pentax.

Hi I am intested in hearing your thoughts on the K30. I live in Australia and regret not having a water resistant camera when I snorkelled the great barrier reef. But it will give me a chance to go back and do it again.
