Lucky you. I ordered before you and mine will not arrive until Tuesday.

Lucky you..I should have paid more for rush delivery! lol

We posted at the same time or something

Good camera choice, how many sleeps is it 'till it arrives.

shaolin95 · 08-28-2009, 01:57 PM

I guess as much as I hate moving...it will keep my mind occupied to make the wait less painful :-)

I ordered my K20 (also as an upgrade from my K100D, go figure) from B&H on Saturday night. It shipped Monday and came last night (Thursday) about dinner time. I haven't had a chance to put it through its paces, but I'm pretty sure I won't be sorry I upgraded!

Report back, I want to read your opinion on the upgrade since we are going to be doing the same thing.

So far I'm really liking my K20D. It's a little less ... forgiving than the 6mp K100D. I notice depth-of-field discrepancies & not-quite-exactly-right focusing issues (I suspect because there's so much more detail when you zoom in), but it's working well.

Here's a picture I took today of my younger daughter, who's now shooting with my old K100D:

Let us know how you like your K20D when it arrives.

Nice!
I just got mine yesterday but was barely able to charge and shoot a few thing in the bedroom since we are still moving and we just finished bring all the boxes yesterday and we need to unpack so I won't be able to really play with it for a few days...oh well at least it is home now. :-)
