I am going to sell my 2 1/2 month old k30 to my friend for $400, so I just bought this deal. I decided that the k5 even though it is older technology, will suit more of my needs for the next year or so and my lenses that I bought for the k30 will work with it so its a no brainer at this price.
With todays exchange rate it came to $987.44 including shipping! I need this zoom so for me, this was a deal I could not pass up. I think I am probably a k30 owner with one of the shortest careers of owning a k30
. My friend is excited to get the k30, and I am getting a lens I need, and a camera that will be easier to use with my tripod and will give me slightly better raw files.
