The K bodies seem to be pretty solid cameras.  The electronics seem to be
what fails on them the most, the most common problem I have seen with
K1000's is dead meters.  Electronics failure is what stops K2's it seems.
Mechanically they seem to last forever.  If you are looking at KX's, check
to make sure the aperture window in the viewfinder is working ok, they seem
to get knocked out of alignment easily.
