No, not a goldfish lens. It has a =green= ring around the barrel. Thanks for the compliments!
I'm happy with the low-light performance of the K10D. From what I've seen and read, one gets about a 1.5 stop advantage in exposure (for the same amount of noise) with the K20, so I'm waiting to see what the K30 has to offer. The D700 is too rich for my blood, and I certainly don't want to change systems--or maintain two!
