Finally Pentax have a camera which can really compete other than in the budget line. I can't wait to see what the new SSM lenses will do for the focusing speed. Also glad to see the return of Hyper-Program and the introduction of Sv mode.
My only disapointment is that it no longer uses AA batteries, but they were being stretched rather by the K100D so I suppose they just couldn't supply the amount of power needed for this cameras new features. |

this is just not fair, they are making me want one
just look at these test shots, ISO 1600 and you have to do a 100% crop to see the noise!

but if the noise is that well controled at 1600, I wonder why they dropped 3200? perhaps the new sensor just can't do it? |

Whew, just in time was thinking about buying a D80 but now I can stick with Pentax since I already have some glass. I am using a *ist now but want something with a few more MP. |
