I�m new in the forum, and it seems that the new Pentax *ist (35mm) is not a favourite among forum members. Can anybody explain me in a few words why? In other words, may I buy that camera, or the Nikon 75 or even the veteran Canon EOS 300 are better choices? I never had a AF camera (I own a Pentax P30t) so tell me your opinions about the best choice among the three mentioned bodies.
I don't think the *ist is a bad camera at all, just that most members here don't like the crippled mount which was designed to dump the K/M lenses. But then again, this should not bother any new comers because they are going to buy AF lenses anyway.
regards, Alan Chan
