..I remembered how the NX300 fit me so well before I had to sell it; now we have two! It has no weather protection but the K50 is so stupid-cheap that my new red one with WR kit lenses will do foul-weather work.

K50? Did you mean the Pentax K50?

Yes, Pentax. I grabbed a used one from the Amazin' Warehouse for $302 with equally red 18-55WR.  Took a pic to check shutter count.. it was Two.  The Warehouse also had a like-new 55-300HD for $220ish.  Silly good prices and weather resistant from 18-300mm.
