Welcome from Iowa! Glad you like that new K-3! A bit jealous, but I'll get over it!

Have fun and post often!
Peace,
Joel

Welcome aboard, that's cos there's so many of them here...

They (Aussies) out number the rest of us about ten to one.

Here is a thread about the Flucard and the K-3.

It appears that the generic Flucard is not officiallly recognised by the camera, but transferring of images still works.

Note that there will be a Pentax-dedicated Flucard soon which will be fully supported by the camera and will also allow remote controlling the camera from a mobile device. Apparently, the Pentax-dedicated version won't be available before February 2014.
