What do you wish your K-50 did better? You might be better served adding to your lens collection instead of upgrading your camera. What photographic subjects interest you?
Thanks John, of coz I want a better quality of images.
I mainly shoot for scenery and now I started to shoot Portrait.

If you cannot answer that without thinking about it, then you do not need it. Get the K-3II or if you would rather have an onboard flash instead of the GPS get th K-3.
Thanks Jatrax, I m not really familiar with FF camera. I just know it would be wider for the sensor.
Because I started my photography with film camera which is 135mm.
So I wonder if it would be necessary to get FF camera? Some of my friends did :P

If its not anything specific like this then its more likely that your photography would get a boost by expanding your lens selection ... Going wider or longer and faster for example.
Or you might look to lighting your portraits and balancing ambient and subject lighting with flash ....or some extension tubes for macro .... There's other things that will have a far greater positive effect on the actual images other than just a camera upgrade. Tell us more about what you would like to achieve look-wise with your photos.
Thanks
mcgregni , i m focusing in scenry, portrait, stars and wildlife(not yet try at this moment).
I wanna upgrade my K50 because i wanna go for a higher quality and advanced functions.
I would definitly go for more lenes but the problem is that lenes are more expensive.
I will get the one i want one by one in the future.
So for now i m deciding to upgrade the body first

Originally posted by Adam K-3 or K-3 II, same difference. Probably worth upgrading but perhaps it might be more worthwhile to start with lenses first.
Thanks Adam, start with lenes first is a great idea.
My concern is the camera body as the lenes are too many.
I can get them later haha

Originally posted by UncleVanya If your only lenses are DA lenses, the Full Frame may not give you much unless you plan to buy more lenses soon. The DA 50 might be Full Frame - on film it appears as if it is - but that fisheye isn't likely full frame.
Do you have any particular goal for the camera? I upgraded from my K-50 to a K-3. I really like the K-3 and found it to be a worthy upgrade. I would upgrade to full frame if you need it - better low light noise performance, wider views from legacy lenses, etc. these are reasons to go to the full frame.
In your situation if you no longer have the k50 which is how I read your post I would either replace it, or look at the ks1 or ks3 or k3.
Thanks
UncleVanya , oh you upgraded? The DA lenes cannot fit in Full Frame Camera?? Really, so should i stop buying DA lenes?
As the Full Frame camera is more professional, like better low light noise performance, wider views from legacy lenses.
what lenes can fit in?
So should I stop buying DA lenes if I go for FF?
