What lens are you getting? I've always been put off Pentax by the lack of lenses in the wide to medium range, with Canon you've got a few in varying pricepoints.

Cracking camera from Pentax by all accounts so far. I'd love one, but my good lady bought me a K30 for my Xmas last year - couldn't see me persuading her that I now need a K3. :-)

Perhaps later next year, but I WILL have one. :-)

I'm just getting the body and a grip as I've already got quite a few lenses.
