Buying a K3...

Loved my k10, 20, K7. I always got by with the kit WR. I really enjoy taking pictures in adverse conditions like the lovely night snow we got the other night or blowing sand.

Get to the point: The K3 was $609 on Amazon for a long time, then I could just grab an 18-55 for a restart on my photography. Damnit. Now as usual, supply and demand kicks in and I'm looking at close to $700 new, $655 used???? Not even.

I posted before about a k5 over a k50. I didn't get one. People recommended k50 dual lense kit at a super deal.

Connection to my smart phone and time lapse would be nice. Weather sealing and toughness #1. I'd go K1, but it's too pricey. I'm going on the road again I hope. My dream camera is actually the X100T, but it's pricey and not 'tough.'

Where to by the k3, my other options, and a good cheap low light prime to add to the kit??
