Originally posted by Nerdlinger Can anybody who has shot both tell me is it really worth it to step up to the K3II. I have limited intentions of using Astrotracer, the GPS I would use, but is not a make or break. I personally like built in flashes. Is the supposed 1 step difference in image stabilization worth it? I am chomping at the bit to get one or the other. Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated.
Look at the features added to the K3II and ask yourself how important are they to the style and subjects in your photography. If you do a lot of street/event photography you may find the 1 stop improvement in SR of value. Astro photography, the GPS will help, I am ambivalent toward the pixel shift as I shoot a lot of landscapes, but think leaves, water etc., will have some movement creating problems; still life would be a different matter.
