Yes, I was pleasantly surprised to find these going so for cheap,
I guess the K100D and K100D put a hurting on the earlier models
but its a well kept secret that the K100D and K110D are not
as good in the finder dept. as the D/DS/DS2/K!0D so if that
wasnt so commonly unknown, I doubt the DS would be seeing prices
as low as they are. I should add, I scoured for about 4 days,
and this price is by far the best right now for the DS. The DS2 are
difficult
to find and about $200-$250 more when I did find them, I just couldnt
justify that only for the larger color LCD but I would have
liked one. there is also an easy to find Samsung the same as the DS2 but
its going for just as much as the DS2s. K10D's are about $500 MORE at
this point which may well
be worth it but not for me right now. I want an aperture cam sensor
for that price!

Sounds like you got a good deal. The DS is a good body, especially for
that kind of price.

JCOC Thanks for the tips everybody, especially the
JCOC part about the DL,DL2, K100D and K110D having
JCOC inferior non prism finders, I know I would not want those at any
JCOC price.
JCOC I found a *istDS for $329.99 new in box with USA warranty and went
JCOC with that. NO, it's not want I really want which would be a much
JCOC higher resolution FF camera with aperture cam sensor and AS, but
JCOC for $329 price point, I can accept those shortcommings and at
JCOC this time. I have a business use
JCOC for it already so its very low cost is already justified
JCOC even if I really dont even like it in the long run...
JCOC If anybody else is interested in one, I think the vendor has more
JCOC of them at the same price, just let me know and I can forward the
JCOC information
