Re: K3 II or K1 as upgrade fro KR

Just my two cents. K-3 improved low light focusing and I guess K-3 II should be even better? But the K-1 has really a great improvement coming from K-3!

If you only want higher definition with APS-C lenses the K-3 II should be the answer, but if you want the better AF and DR from Pentax, you'll get it from the K-1. Coming from K-5 and K-3, it's really amazing for me in ISO, DR, AF and usability.

I hope that someone with K-1 and K-3 II experience will provide a better comparison.

Regards

PS: If astrotracer is so important for you, I guess that a FF wide angle lens is your next move
