B&H Update

Thanks all for advise in my previous post. It was worth going to the B & H NY store to handle the different Pentax models for comparison and talk to store staff . Store staff was very helpful. Its just like going to an animal shelter just to look, you know your coming home with a puppy. It was time to let my ist DL go to back up status while is still had some life in it . It is old but I still got decent results results with it . Compared the K-3 ($694. ) to K-50 ( $274). The transition from the ist DL to the K-50 was a breeze with, for the most part, similar controls . The extra pixels are welcomed and ease of the bracketing and other features will lessen my need for photo shop. Don't get me wrong the K-3 was nice but the K-50 has everything I need and nothing I don't need for a great price. This forum has been very helpful in not only helping me determine my wants and needs, but more importantly, it helped frame my questions for the B&H staff .
