First, I wanted to say thank you to everyone who offered opinions and provided guidance. I appreciate it more than you know, and I'm continually impressed at how friendly and helpful everyone is, so thanks!
What did I decide? Well, my decision was based around two things, which follow:
1. Lenses. Many of you told me to invest in lenses, which I already have been for years. I have 3 lenses that I take with me everywhere: Pentax DA* 16-50MM, 1:2.8; Pentax DA 18-55MM, 1:3.5-5.6; and, a Pentax DFA 100MM, 1:2.8 macro.
2. Features vs. Price Point. While I could buy the K-1, people said a lot of great things about the KP and the K3II as well as the K70. And, in fact, the K70 was in my final 2.
DECISION: I am going forward with the Pentax KP and the Pentax DFA 50MM, 1:2.8 lens. I decided that I do want to work towards a full frame camera, and maybe in a year or so I can get a great deal on a used K-1 or perhaps Pentax will come out with another full frame body. The KP gives me the features I want, future proofs me for a few years, and allows me to leverage some great lenses that have been my favorites for some time.
SO, there you have it. As many of you said, it would have been hard to make a bad choice given such a great product line up. I'm a huge Pentax fan - I always have been. I have no desire to move to another platform, so I'm glad for all the choices (even though it made choosing a challenge).
Thanks again everyone for all the help and guidance - you're an awesome group.
