I'm borrowing a friend's at the moment. - They're pretty cheap, check B+H. - They've released *really* inexpensive 15mm and 12mm lenses. - It may be all metal, but it doesn't feel all that solid. The lenses, otoh, do feel nice. - I find the shutter speed dial to be clumsy, but maybe I haven't found the trick to it. - I can't say I'm a big fan of the led metering. tv - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
