Must be a close out because Pentax is going out of business.

or the usual reason - a new model is on the way. I bought my K200D cheap because the K7 was about to be released, then bought the K7 cheap because the K5 was about to be released. Mind you, even if there's a new model coming out (and hopefully there always will be), the K1 is a very capable camera. Come on - where's all those people who were complaining endlessly about needing a FF body? Or have they already bought one? As for me, I like the extra reach I get with the K3 and the DFA 150-450, even is it's somewhat illusory.

Bloody Marvellous. Pressed the buy now and a new K1 is coming my way, to the Sunshine Coast. No cash to spare, but for everything else there's MasterCard!

As I already own a K-1 (bought for $2300 earlier this year in a similar 20% deal (when it was $2900 originally!), I opted for getting the cheaper Silver KP with the silver DA 15mm HD Limited! They'll make a snug pair together!

mmmm...... PENTAX 8x43 Z-SERIES ZD WP BINOCULARS for me.... Still waiting for a K3 replacement... but the silver K1 for just a bit over $2200 was tempting.

I use my two kids as an advantage when discussing camera needs to the wife "But think of all the wonderful pics of the kids we'll miss out on if I don't get xxxxx lense/camera etc. Use that emotional leverage!

That certainly justified my K-1 purchase!
