Noting modest about those lenses. They are all excellent IMO. And ofcourse - Wlcom back Jeremy. If you buy a Pentax DSLR you will help making Pentax competitive in the DSLR market!
The *ist D is worth every cent of it's price, IMO. I bet the *ist Ds will be too.

I have been using Pentax cameras, since my first purchase 4 years ago. I started with an ME Super, and then graduated to a PZ-1 because I really wanted AF (i have kids) and DOF preview. I have a nice little set of modest lenses ... the 50mm Pentax M, the 28-70 FA 4.0, and a 70-210 F. I absolutely love my Pentax and equipment. Having recently decided to make my first step into the DSLR market however, I am concerned about Pentax's ability to remian competitive in the digital market in the long term picture. Money does not flow freely for me, and investing in a DSLR will be a very significant investment (although I suppose this is the case for most of us). While I yearn for nothing more than to remain a true Pentax user, I am worried going for their DSLR might be a mistake. Is it time to consider converting to one of the "others" ? Is there any consensus on whether or not Pentax can continue to keep up? I suppose this might be a tough question to answer, but I figured what better place to find out than the PDML. If this has been a common topic of discussion, I would appreciate being pointed in the direction of specific archive posts that I may find useful. Thanks in advance Jeremy [EMAIL PROTECTED]
