<p>I have owned both cameras, currently very happy with the K-3ii. The two are basically VERY similar cameras with identical IQ. The K3ii "appears" to have a slight edge with ever-so-slightly better AF but that is purely anecdotal (and perhaps entirely in my mind). For still life/studio work the pixel shift is a huge win providing similar IQ as my Nikon D800. As for lenses, I tend to use only long lenses and macro on my Pentax, leaving my wide to normal lenses for my Nikon D800. In particular, I'm enamored of the DA* 60-250mm f/4 -- a stellar lens that has no equivalent. However, there is nothing like those 49mm "Limited" lenses -- they are adorable (Note: they have a unique old-school quality to them and while sharp stopped down, they get "dreamy" when opened up). All in all, one of the best values in todays camera systems.<br>
