Pentax KP DSLR Camera (Body Only, Black) 16018 B&H Photo Video

Pentax KP 24MP TTL Autofocus DSLR Camera, Silver

(weird thing is that the Adorama listing says "closeout" for this item)

Body only in black or silver shows close out, but the kits do not.

Very nice deal!

Thanks for the heads up on the lower price....I have been waiting for a deal....so I was all set this afternoon to Buy a new one from b&h at the new price when I saw they had a used one, condition 9+ , for $760 so I snagged that one!

If it was $950 Canadian I'd buy Tess one for Christmas.

Even owning a K-1 I can say KP is an astonishingly good camera. I paid $950 for mine from a PF member and I thought I had a spectacular deal.

Now that the new toy effect has worn off I use it for wildlife with 300mm+ and for sports. Frame rate in jpeg and tracking AF is just fine. Tess would be happy.
