If so, the K200D has come down so much in price, that it's nearly the same cost as a K-m and may be a bargain. So if I went for a Pentax -which should I go for. Does the K-m improve in areas on the K200D?
If size and weight aren't of principal importance to you then I'd suggest the K200D over the K-m. I've owned the K200D and currently have a K-m. Aside from size I prefer the K200D. I ended up with a K-m because size is the primary factor for me and at the end of the day I can get the same photo out of the K-m as the K200D. It's just that the K200D is nicer to use to get said photo.
