I've been shooting Pentax for over 30 years, Peter... I tried the DL - it is too heavy for me with a tele lens on it especially.
when I first got a digi cam it was a powershot a80 - right for my pocket book and worked with my computer -- then I got the PRo-1 - it was cheaper than the ists and I already had the software on my computer It was a difficult learning curve for me as it was... Then the PRo-1 got drowned and I ordered the DL - which I found not too user friendly - also software and hardware issues with computer. I returned it right away and bought a refurbished Pro-1. computer wise - I now have a dell dimension c521 replacing my 6 year old dell that had windows 98 on it and is dying. I bought and rejected the Pentax digi while I still had the old machine... and no money to upgrade. Then I won a few hundred dollars on a lottery ticket I shared with a friend and could buy the new computer. Sorry you asked??? I'm trying to keep learning new things to a snails pace because I cant absorb stuff fast enough, Once I swung to Canon for the first digital I was hooked. But I still have my kx and my lx . maybe I'll get to use them again someday. ann Peter Lacus wrote: >Ann, > > > >>We really had such a lovely time and I'm exstatic over my dark side >>camera I bought myself for my soon to be 70 birthday gift. >> >> > >may I be a bit nosy, please?
