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 »

Cons This camera is incredibly expensive and hard to use without a tripod. 
Recommended it? Yes

I have not gotten the chance to buy this product, yet, but I most certainly will! I have rented one and used it accordingly.
