I have no personal experience with it, so I'm only going by what he says. If he hadn't provided images to back up much of what he says, I might not have believed him, but the white balance problems, the fluctuating exposure and the low-light difficulties have been documented in the report. Add to that what he says about the buffer, and the need to get into the menu to do what other cameras can do from the body, and all the other things he mentions makes me stick by what I said: "It ~sounds~ like a horrible camera at virtually any price..." Geez, I've got a first-generation Pentax digital body that does a lot better than his in virtually every problem that he mentions... cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
