Yes, I had the same dilemma but unlike you I kept the K-x. While I do plenty of outdoors photography I don't go camping, hiking or fishing with it. my lenses are not weather-proofed either so I don't intend getting the K-x wet.
I did plenty of outdoor tests with each camera, same shots, same lens and aperture within a few mins of each other. Something i did notice and my wife agreed and that was the light balance between the two sets of images was quite different - both cameras were set to auto.
The k200d shots were out, the white balance made the shade cloth to our botanical shadehouse a cream colouration yet it's beige. I'd never really noticed this despite using and loving the camera for 2 years or so.
I took more shots and got more evidence of this. Both my wife and myself concluded the K-x white balance/Colouration was much closer to the real thing.
I can see what you mean by warmer, but do you really want things to look un-real? You could do that in PP.
I also preferred the feel of the k200d, but not enough to choose it over the IQ attributes of each of the cameras. it's interesting that we've both been doing the same comparisons though :cool:
