Subject: istd or istds or wait?
Hi all,
simple question: shoudl I get an istD or istDs, or should I wait for the
next digital SLR. Will Pentax bring us a newer digital SLR, with the Sony
rumours?
Is the only main difference between the D and Ds that the D will accept a
battery pack?
I have invested a lot in Pentax glass and will feel pretty shitty when I
cannot upgrade to a good digital SLR.
The D and Ds are both pretty decent DSLR's.
If you are going to buy now, I think the Ds is the way to go. The D has a
rather slow buffer. I do find it annoying.
I was shooting some grup shots yesterday. I don't use a flash meter anymore,
I just do a few test exposures and dial it in with the histogram.
It's very accurate, but it was a lot faster when I used a meter.
