Camera quest!

[Greg K.]

Continuing my ongoing effort to fritter away money on a new camera ...

I dropped by B&H earlier in the week and shared an intimate moment with a Pentax *istDL. We hit it off instantly! For the price (less than $600 with the kit lens, 18-55 mm included) and the size, shape, and feel of the thing, how can I go wrong?

The reviews have been generally excellent, and I think this could be The One. :love:

But before I commit...I'm wondering what others out there think of this particular camera.

So...? :rolleyes1

Played with the camera and for that price, there is no excuse for anybody for not buying a dSLR. It's not a stellar camera, but for it is the absolute best camera for that price.

The die is cast.

Just bought the Pentax kit from BuyDig. With lens, and SD card. No tax. Free shipping. Total: $572. Should be here in 8-10 days.

:cool1: :banana: :yay: :woohoo: :thumbsup2

Congratulations!!!

My first love was a Pentax Spotmatic. That camera gave me many many years of faithful service. Sometimes I drag it out of the closet and click it just to show it that I still care :love: .
