Hi Chaos_Realm and thanks for the tip about PKtether. I've invested in an Eye Fi card to get round the tethering thing. If that doesn't work, I'll try PKtether. ATB and many thanks.

Truly inspiring Ben. I feel all warm inside about the K-5 that the postman is bringing me today. Mind you, I suspect that you could make magic with a box brownie!

Not-so-very-patiently waiting for the postman to bring mine. I've bought a low-mileage used model from a reputable dealer over here in the UK. The postie should also be bringing a 16-45 bought privately, so I will have something to play with and learn the secret arts of the K-5. Then I plan to explore the mythical powers of the Limited Primes. Should be fun!

I've just sold up my Fuji S5 Pro and Zeiss 50 because the old girl was a bit on the slow side, tethering was a bit of a mare, manual focus was doing my head in and the conventional upgrade path seemed boring and expensive.
I've struck lucky with a nearly-new K-5 at a half decent price - due to arrive today - so I'm looking forward to seeing what the weather is like in Pentax-land.
I've also bought a used 16-45mm F4 from the classifieds of the UK Pentax forum so I will have something to play with. If I like the K-5 I'll be looking out for some primes next.
Any advice would be very welcome indeed and greatly appreciated.
