If you're not shooting any film, the DA70 is a better option (smaller, less expensive, just as good). Otherwise, the 77. Maybe, just maybe, this will result in a few more 77LTDs on the used market.
The only LTD I've ever seen at KEH was a 43, and that was after the DA40 became available. I'm probably drawing correlations prematurely but it's certainly a possibility. -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com Shoot more film! -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
