Get it with the kit and then
I used the kit lens on my K-x once, to see how it worked. Most of the

For a kit lens, it doesn't suck. Apart from my DA40 it might also be
my lightest lens. Which has some benefits.

Actually, it isn't bad. I didn't see anything that flew out at me as poor
optics. I'll give mine a whirl when it arrives.

You've got to learn to think of it as a special deal only available on

It begins to sound like you should get the body with the kit lens, those
usually sell for about $100 on ebay. So you'll come out ahead.

On Sat,
It's the new DA L kit lens, not the mechanically better DA or DA II
version which are the ones which go for $100. Plastic mount, no hood
and no QSF, same optics as the DA II and WR versions though.

Hi Jeffery,
Firstly welcome aboard, it's a great
Larry and Adam, thanks for the replies.
I'm very glad to hear about the low light capabilities. I have been using
rangefinders primarily for the past 10 years because lack of mirror flap and
fast lens availability made low light work possible (at least with film). I

it comes to things like robust
