One of the reasons I got the k-30 after a lot of research and deliberation, was that it had enough features for me to grow into. The k-5 II is closer on the spectrum to being a professional camera, but I have learned to accept that there will always be a more expensive camera than the one I end up buying
. I am not a highly paid professional photographer, and this is already an expensive hobby for me. I don't mind investing in good equipment, but I have learned that today's $1,300 camera will be next years $800 camera and a $500 camera in two years.
I hope to learn a lot about lenses, especially vintage manual ones with my k-30.
