I'm actually Malaysian (Sabahan to be exact). I just happen to be studying in Bangalore.
I brought the camera into India from Malaysia.
There are few Pentax shooters in Bangalore if not entire India.
I had an experience in a camera store in Bangalore, where this Indian guy acting all high and mighty with his Nikon D90 and belittling Pentax and my K-x - calling it 'Pathetic'.
Little does he know what the K-x is capable of or rather... what a Pentax is...
I had purchased the K-x over D3100 and 1100D after an extensive comparison...
I just told him to google up TIPA Awards 2010 for K-x and read up the specs and price for the camera versus his 'high and mighty D90' before he looks more like moron.
... we (Pentax Shooters) are rare indeed...

I am the only one in my entire university campus (in Bangalore) that shoots with Pentax...
The fact that Pentax doesnt enter Indian market doesn't help one bit...
should count as rare... right?

I asked a question to cameralabs in Youtube... Here is the response:
Q: Just wondering... Are you going to review the new Pentax K-30 ? - Cybersetan
A: Nope, Pentax in their infinite wisdom are the only company which doesn't send me cameras to review. - Cameralabs
See in the comment area, here:

I wonder why Pentax doesn't send DSLRs to him to be reviewed? what about DigitelRev?
Any Pentax staff care to explain?

I live in India at the moment and I got free shipping from pentax singapore for my K-30 body (unboxed version)~
You have to consider that not all users here live in US. Amazon's free shipping doesn't apply for orders from outside US.
This cost must be taken into account~
The fine print for Amazon's free shipping states:
"Applies to U.S. delivery addresses in the 50 states only, including Alaska and Hawaii. Geographic shipping restrictions may apply to particular products; for example, some Tools & Hardware items may not be shipped to Alaska and Hawaii using FREE Super Saver Shipping."
I had previously ordered a used 18-55mm WR from B&H, the shipping cost alone from US to India with UPS super saver was already 65USD~
The example I gave above for (the unboxed 18-135mm lens) was apparantly taken out from a K-30 w/ 18-135mm kit. Both the K-30 body and the lens from this kit are sold seperately as unboxed and hence sold cheaper compared to standard body only or lens only set...~
With such great bargain, 1 year warranty, plus the Free shipping worldwide~
It is obviously a better deal than either Amazon's, B&H's or Adorama~
... my K-30 came with the [K-30 w/ 18-135mm] box - without the 18-135mm lens of course~

I bought the K-30 body from Pentax Singapore and has arrived 2 days ago...
Mine came with the original box~ Although I purchased the 'unboxed' k-30 version...~
For 850SGD (equivalent to 684USD) with FREE shipping all over the world (mine was sent with FEDEX)... Amazon's deal pale in comparison...
See for yourselves:
Amazon's deal (body) for - 839.95USD excluding shipping cost: Amazon.com: Pentax K-30 Weather-Sealed 16 MP CMOS Digital SLR (Black, Body Only): Electronics
Pentax Singapore's deal (unboxed-body) for - 684USD with shipping cost: K-30 Body Kit Black (unboxed)
Customers will invariably choose the best deal of the lot~

Its not that difficult once you tried it a few times~
If you have a dirty manual pentax-M lens, try cleaning it yourself~:)
