Want the silver one. Only 300 made apparently. Still can wish for it.

If you can't find one in the US - a last resort could be that the silver edition is available (again) at the Pentax Europe store.

Although I don't know their policy for export to US. Maybe you'll need an European pentaxian friend to help you out with the purchase?

Oooooooo! Thanks!

I have contacted Pentax Europe to see if I can buy direct. They do PayPal so there is that.

I did just chat with B&H and they said "sorry discontinued" even though I told them it was re-available in Europe. So, no sale for them. Too bad.

Update. Pentax Europe said nope, sorry, can't sell to/ship to US, but they said they'd reach out to Pentax US to see why only black was being offered. I asked to be put on a waiting list

I received nr 272 yesterday. So the limited silver edition is running short.

I guess I'll wait, or offer an insane amount on eBay/ the forum.
