I have just started with the digital part of the hobby.
Back in the day I shot a lot of film with my Super Program.
Just a bit ago I saw a almost new K-M for sale and picked it up. The enjoyment has come back.
I have lots to learn about the tech and new settings so if I ask some annoying newbie questions that have been asked a thousand times please understand.

Listening to this I picked up a slightly used DA 55-300 and you are right, I am much happier with the detail in the shots.
Being it has been about -30c daily here since the end of January I haven't had much chance to try it out other than the feeders in my backyard but I am happy with it for now. Birthday is in a few months and it looks like there is a good supply of used K-70 bodies out there.

So the K70 is better than the K3? Don't they have the sensor? Humor me I'm still learning. :)

So I just bought a cheap but almost new K-m with a 10 mp sensor. I am really enjoying playing with it as I haven't shot many photos since I was shooting film with my Super Program.
I am thinking that I want a "keep for a long time" camera and am looking for your more skilled opinions on what to get. I have a line on a K s2 with a 256 shutter count and absolute mint condition. I am wondering how well the 20mp sensor is compared to the newer 24mp sensors.
Could I get this Ks2 and be happy with it for a long time or should I hold out for a K70 or K3ii? I'm not really thinking that more money makes a better camera but are the newer cameras sensor and features worth the increased cost.
I have a few old manual and KA mount lenses and like to take wildlife and landscape type photos.
