What am I packing? Not as much as I would like!

"So what kit am I using?" I hear no one ask. Good question. I am a big one for the road less travelled so right at the start I got into Pentax. Why? Well living in the UK it is safe to say that 90% of my photography year is spent in "low light." When I was first moving up from my Fuji bridge camera to a DSLR the Pentax K100d seemed a great low light camera - built in shake reduction, ISO200 starting point etc. It proved to be a great little camera and I had some fun with it.

At 6MP the file sizes quite quickly became an issue and I was lucky to find a second hand Pentax K10D which I got for about £300 (this was 18 months or so ago). So she's my baby now. I have the kit 18 - 55mm lens, a Tamron 70 - 300mm and a Tamron 90mm 1:1 macro. I have a PTTL Sigma flash and that's about it apart from monopod, tripod, remote release etc.

What's the K10 like?

Pros - very well built, solid feeling, reliable, easy to navigate, plenty of settings, warm colour rendition

Cons - slow autofocus (or is that the lens?), average dynamic range

I like it! What next? Hmmmm. I would like to stay with Pentax and the K20d is attractive but it doesn't seem a huge step forward from my current squeeze apart from 50% more MP's. If Pentax did a serious pro level DSLR I would be there like a shot. In the abscence of that, however, I may have to join the road more travelled with a Nikon D300 but it means changing everything. Pricey!

Come on all you gurus out there - what would you suggest?
