It seems like the *istD was *made* for the Pentax H. Perfect match in its finish, handles great, and the smaller sensor uses the sweet spot of the fine one element plastic optic :-) I'll post some pics taken with it and the *istD (I'm going to get carpal tunnel syndrome just from typing that name) as soon as I can. The 16-45 seems like a nice lens, but it's bulky and the istD feels so much better with a small prime. The FA35 will be the main lens attached to this body. The zoom will be around I guess, but I might ebay it if I don't use it much. I'm really happy with the istD, I don't think it couldn't be closer to an MX in terms of feel, given the market constraints nowadays. It's very very nice. > Pittsburgh is only about 30 minutes east of Ohio - stop on by if you can I might! Although I wasn't planning to go anywhere farther east from Ohio (it will be a hectic trip as it is, back and forth in two weeks). But I'll let you know. Thanks everybody for the warm welcome! j -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Juan J.
