White and blue 9xx is with dal 18-55mm lens not body only . Really very good price for this great camera

[JohnTaylor]

I am seriously tempted to buy one, especially after my K-5 rear screen debacle.

But I'm trying to not spend, and straining my patience to wait to see what replaces the K-5 and the FF Pentax.

***trying means may not succeed! ***

consider 2nd hand k-r, k7 at 600 sgd, a brand new k30 at 784sgd seems very attractive,

for 184 sgd, you get a lot more and brand new,
