Thanks for the hands on report Bob.

> Just a quick report of my impressions of the camera...
> I saw my sister and her family yesterday.
> She and her 26 year old son are both Pentax users.
> He just bought a K100D so I got an up close and personal look at it.
>
> Construction, egronomics, switch layout and menu's are all familiar.
> The body is maybe 1/8th inch bigger and a bit more boxy (plastic?) than my DS.
> Shake reduction was there, but I couldn't give it much of a test.
> The viewfinder was fine, with slightly smaller text below it than my DS.
> The LCD on the back was of course much bigger!
>
> Autofocus was similar, but the buffer is smaller. I could get 3
> jpeg's in continuous shooting before the 4th shot had a delay while
> the buffer emptied. I get more like 6 with the DS.

> My nephew has been shooting with an ME Super he 'borrowed' from his
> mom. He likes the new camera and waited for shake reduction rather
> than buy a DS or DL. He has used it mainly with the 18-55mm kit lens
> on fully automatic. He also took the time to figure out how to shoot
> some black & white conversions on the camera.
