Hey folks, I*m thinking of buying a K10D. (I have a DS now.) I have eagerly read many PDML threads on this transition, including the now famous *I regret upgrading* or whatever it was called and the new *Canon is better than Pentax" . I still have a few questions:
1. What was (were) the one (or two) feature(s) of the K10D that made the whole upgrade worthwhile? 2. I*m not planning on buying the grip since the camera is already pretty big. I do like the small size of the DS, but have used bigger cameras (like the 645 and the MZ-S with a grip) so the size thing is not a deal breaker. Any comments on not using the grip? 3. I notice there*s a third party battery offered by B&H. Is it any good? It*s certainly a lot cheaper. 4. Is the 18-55 f3.5-whatever lens any good? In some kits it*s almost free. 5. Any other "you gotta buy this too" advice? Thanks. Think of this as another excuse to open old wounds <vbg> Steven Desjardins Department of Chemistry Washington and Lee University Lexington, VA 24450 (540) 458-8873 FAX: (540) 458-8878 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
