Camera:
-purchased in 2007, was the flagship at the time (aka Pentax K10D)
-fully compatible with Pentax lenses, etc with even more fantastic Samsung service
-in-body anti-shake.. makes ALL lenses are lighter, smaller, less expensive and STABILIZED, even ancient and 3rd party lenses that don't have it (ie. Tamron 28-75/2.8, 70-200/2... also not aware of any stabilized prime lenses below 85 or 100mm from C/N..
-battery grip for extended shooting time, extra controls for easier vertical/portraits and extra memory card and pentax remote storage (I charge the batteries every month or two)
-some scratches on the body/grip and rear LCD (not noticable/visible when it's dark)
-all the cables and stuff it originally came with: tv out cable, usb, manual, cd, samsung strap etc
-8GB high speed memory card + 2 batteries

4 Lenses with hoods, 3 MC(multicoated) UV filters, 6 pinch caps:
-18-55mm, 50-200mm, FA35/2 (samsung branded) and Pentax FA50/1.4
(the FA35 and FA50 include step up rings so the lens caps are interchangable! yay!)

Why buy a low end PLASTIC DSLR with only *1* lens? No sales person will tell you that lenses are more important than a body and there isn't a world of difference between a new and older camera body in full daylight or with flash/studio. My 4 lenses will have you covered for almost every situation (with and without flash). 2 great zoom lenses (with metal mounts, not breakable plastic like the C&N competition!) and 2 fantastic Pentax primes.

My kit was heavily used, yet loved. Spent a lot of time scoping out used/new prices on many sites like ebay, amazon and bhphoto and putting together some sample pics over the years (after losing many from a backup drive that died). All for 1,100,000 won? What's reasonable to you?

If you're starting, or want to get serious about photography, you'd probably end up with a similar kit. Lens journey ends with 4 more lenses? (wide angle, f/2.8 zooms and a real macro lens)

Thanks for looking!

No Pentax users? Price too high?

Let's try again, price dropped and itemized if you don't need the whole lot..

1. GX10 body + battery grip + 2 batteries + 18-55mm lens + 8GB memory card - 250,000
2. 50-200mm lens - 120,000
3. 35mm f/2 lens - 280,000
4. 50mm f/1.4 lens - 200,000

Buy the whole lot for 800,000 and I'll include a [bussup] camera bag for you to lug it all away since it's a bit difficult to repack everything into their original boxes (you'll unbox them anyway, right?)

My passport is expiring in a few months and I need to leave the country to renew it (my driver's license has already expired). I'd like a little more dough to buy stuff that I can't get in Korea. If you have a Samsung NC10 netbook in good condition, I'm willing to consider that as I don't have a net-/notebook.. US/Canada and Korean models are fine..

This looks like a cracking deal... im going to have to do some research though as my digital SLR knowledge is not brilliant.

Where are you based, if i want to inspect the goods?

Cheers
