Great story, and a worthy approval of the Pentax KP. I'm a new KP user and I too am very impressed with it. The image quality, build quality, ergonomics, customization, etc., are all very impressive. I'm looking forward to spending a lot of time with the KP moving forward. Take care, and enjoy your cameras.

Thank you very much for all of the useful information. I've learned photography over the years through my father. He did darkroom b+w and color enlargements for twenty years or so. He's used old Nikon 35mm cameras, a film Pentax 6x7, Hasselblad, Canon 5D and 5D MKII, and many more. Now, he uses a Pentax K1 and he likes it so far. With that being said, your advice for tweaking the internal settings will be helpful to both of us. I appreciate it. I will be using the Pentax 28-105mm lens, and a Pentax 50mm f1.4 lens for now. I also have access to a couple older, manual lenses. I'm looking forward to using the KP, and seeing how it compares to my outgoing Canon 60D.
-Thanks

Thank you for the replies! I'm still deciding, but it seems that either way it'll work out well enough. The silver does remind me of the 35mm film cameras I learned on 15 or so years ago. I'm 27, and just old enough to have used film before digital became the new standard.
-Thanks

Hi All,
I'm new around here. I'm getting ready to purchase a KP since recently selling my Canon 60D. The 60D was a great camera, but I'm intrigued by the features of the Pentax. Now, I'm leaning toward the silver KP but I'm curious; is the silver color painted over a different color of polycarbonate and magnesium? I ask because I'm assuming the black version can handle a scratch, at least on the polycarbonate part, and still look good, but I'm afraid a scratch on the silver will expose a black, or other color material underneath. I'm not that worried about cosmetics, but I'm curious before I buy.
-Thanks
