Here is an amazon link to the one I have. I have it fixed to my field flatener so for me its like mounting a small lens that I then place in the telescope.

DxOMark would have rated a 3D printed body just as high, if it had Nikon on the front. :-)

K-5 Viewfinder?

I used to have the same problem with my Kr. Moving from bright area to looking through view finder was taking a while for me to see all there was. I upgraded to the K5 mainly for the top LCD. I point the camera in the general direction and half press shutter and then make adjustments viewing the top screen before looking through the viewfinder to compose. It still takes a few seconds for the info to materialize in my vision. I dont think there is any adjustment other than waiting for the eye to dilate???

lens question for new K-5

The price for the K-5 from Adorama is about the best available now, you canfind the link that takes you to Adorama around here and this benefits thisforum when you are ready to make your purchase. As for the lens kits, you arealmost paying full price in the kit, as the DA 18-55WR is $159 and the 18-135 isonly $460. This makes it harder on you by giving you no easy choices as you are not really saving in the combo!!!
Personally I have the DA18-55WR and love it. Its not a great lens but it is agreat starter and WR if you get caught out or want to get shooting foggymornings the day you get your K5!. I see an 18-135WR in my near future and itwould be a great lens to play with, helping you to find the kind of length youare looking for when you start buying primes and faster zooms. After that youhave a great all-rounder to turn to when the weather turns.

You will love the K-5:D
