  • Pentaxians

    Two new DSLRs from Pentax, the K100D and the K110D.

    They're the *ist DL with anti-shake. I'm trying to figure out the difference between the 100 and the 110, but I can't find it. I'm hoping the web site is wrong, and the difference is that the 100 has a pentaprism instead of a penta-mirror.

    Anti-shake would be nice if I had any really long lenses (and if I didn't mind carrying a tripod everywhere I go). I think Pentax is hoping their brand loyalists will upgrade, but it's not that much of an upgrade.

  • *ist? is this another archaic french word that I don't know?

  • They'd have to do a lot to get me to spend money at this stage of the game.

  • The thing that really bugs me about DSLRs now is the non-ability to change "film" types. I have to admit that digital really is goddamn convenient though, but for the quick shots I want to take, a really decent P&S digicam completely satisfys me.

    Come on, join the other crumduggeons and get yourself an old MF camera! The price is right!
