Redemption! After copious digging, I found one Canadian retailer who i selling this lens at the same sale price as the other mounts. I live in a province with 15% sales tax, so the $138 saving will go a long way towards a 72mm CPL filter..................

Here in Canada Sigma is having a sale on the 18-300 zoom ($120 off) but only for Canon and Nikon mounts.............grrrr. I would have thought that Pentax and Sony, having no in-lens stabilisation, would be cheaper to make.....

Every illustration in the manual, of the screen settings etc is a photo, and for older eyes the shades of grey are less contrasty (i.e. harder to see in detail) then color. I also think its great not to include a printed manual, which gives me the option of printing it. I just wish the "illustrations" were in color. Look at any manual with color and see the increased clarity. It costs Ricoh nothing since the user is doing the printing..

No printed manual anymore. You can either print it from the software, or scan a QR code in the brief how to start guide, or d/l it here.

I just downloaded the manual pdf for the K70 from the Ricoh site. Now that Ricoh have downloaded the cost of a printed manualon to the camera buyer, would it have killed them to provide the images in the manual in colour?? My Canon sx60hs manual even has colour photos in it.............
End of grump...........

Hello all. I am a new at Pentax but taking photos for years new user. Pentax is my first dSLR, having worked my way through 6 point and shoot cameras ( Still kept the Lumix FZ30 and Canan SD800). I cut my teeth on Nikon since 1976 ( have 24, 35, 50mm micro, 105, 80-200 and 500 mm lenses), mostly slide and B&W. I have my old darkroom and bulk film loader in storage, and still haul out my 120/220 TLRs once in a while.
The Pentax is so feature rich that the learning curve is steep, and I joined this Pentax Community for hints, pointers, and answers to puzzling questions, and I must say those answers were easy to find here.
Remember, if there is a body of water in your shot, keep it level!
