Plus one for this ^. A K-5 is a much finer camera. It does not have "Scene" modes, however. But it is easy to use, a pro design with many direct-access controls. Former flagship models like the K-5 have a much more durable build quality. Find one moderately-used, and you've got a very fine camera, even by current standards. A K-5 II or IIs would be yet better, with improved autofocus with many of the available lenses.
If having the "Scene" modes is important, an older used model, the K200D could be a good choice, and even a low-use perfect one should not cost much. Well built, and I have not heard of one having the aperture block problem.
