Originally posted by ROW Are people happy with the Pentax K3? I've read about a few issues but hope they are sorted by now.
I would say yes. At least I am. I have a K-5 as well, and find the K-3 better in almost every way - the exceptions being that it's a bit heavier and it lasts a bit shorter per battery charge, but neither is a big issue. It will be a big step up from the K20.
Some people had an issue with the camera freezing from time to time early on, but it was not pandemic. The "fix" was to pull and re-insert the battery. I believe they sorted that out later in the production run (as well as implementing a firmware workaround for the affected ones).
