I've been advised my 11 year old G'dr would like a "real" camera for Christmas...
Her mom says, no interchangeable lenses, etc., and while she's not a Luddite, necessarily, she doesn't think her daughter is really ready for all the purely mechanical business... It may be that MOM is not ready... <g>
So, gifting her with one of my nice mechanicals (MG, MV) is out of the picture. For now.


In the meanwhile, who has an idea of a simple, 35mm film version, fully auto P&S Pentax, with perhaps a 3X zoom lens.
Assuming all the Pentax lenses are of equal capability in that camera line, does it all boil down to price?


ARE the lenses equal to each other in the P&S category? Is any one better than the other?

I'll head off to the Pentax site, but thought I'd ask here first, to see if some consensus can be developed...

Thanks ahead of time,

keith whaley
