Pros Body-integral anti-shake, superior Pentax optics & build quality
Cons No anti-dust feature for the sensor

I bought my Pentax K100D when I was ready to move up from my Olympus superzoom "prosumer" point & shoot camera.

I bought it to get into digital SLRs. I already have an outstanding Olympus OM system for film, and a nice little Canon Elph for a pocket size digital. I wanted top-quality optics,... Read full review »

Pros Overall great - very happy with it.
Cons I hate carrying a camera bag everywhere but that's what you get with SLR
Recommended it? Yes

This is my first DSLR. My principal reason for buying this camera was that I had 5 Pentax lenses. While most information says this camera is compatible with old lenses, many features will not work with them. Only one of my A mount lenses works as expected. The camera cannot control the aperture in... Read full review »

This camera has great ergonomics, user interface, and feel.  Built in shake resistance (into the body, so it work with every lens), and a nice variety of pentax lenses make this a great bargain. Read full review »
