Hey Folks, A while ago I asked about the differences between the *ist-DS and the *ist-DL, and got a set of great answers. I decided the *ist-DS was more attractive to me because of the pentaprism (instead of the pentamirror). Viewfinder brightness is a matter of importance for me in my macro work. Price is also a concern. Today I got ready to order, and discovered that suddenly neither B and H or Adorama carry the *ist-DS anymore! Does anyone know why this is the case? And now I see there's a DS2 on the Pentax site, although I don't see this for sale yet! Is this scheduled to be a pricey model?
I'm afraid of other companies.....I've...I've been hurt before. :) Barry Barry A. Rice, Ph.D. Invasive Species Specialist Invasive Species Initiative The Nature Conservancy V: 530-754-8891 http://tncweeds.ucdavis.edu
