Saw a guy with this kit when out birding a couple of Sundays ago. I was jealous lugging my hefty Nikon D300 with new but dated Nikkor 300mm F4. The Pentax lens is the same price but half the weight of the Nikkor equivalent**. I have too many cameras at the moment but I reckon if I was starting out tomorrow I'd go for it. Great compact kit with in-body shake-reduction. (and....300mm here, equal to about 450mm (?) in the old school, is long enough for bird photography)
I guess the Pentax forum is so quiet because they're all out in the field. (Too busy?)
(** Whoops it's not half the weight. It's 1,070g!) Still about a third lighter....Apologies though.
