I find myself using it more and more, and it's nearly always in my pocket in the Pentax leather case. My only objection is that the auto white balance tends to go somewhat blue, so I usually use manual white balance. I'm very impressed with battery performance and overall quality. Even 8x10 prints are excellent, IMO.
