From: "Steve Larson"
Sorry I've been away so long, I bought a small boat, then got some major medical issues. Anyway, what do you do with an LX system? Seems obsolete and nobody would buy one anyway, not to mention my K1000, 4 Spotties, and a Super P. Guess they just collect dust. I am still pissed about film going away and have not gotten a Pentax Digital SLR yet, but am now considering it so I can still use my lenses. Hope they have a body that will accept my lenses. Any suggestions on which used body to look for? Thanks, Steve Larson
Film may be dying, but it ain't dead yet. My first choice would be to use 'em while you still can. Even though I've been digital since the *ist-D, I still use my LX & K-1000 (& PZ-1P).
I sorta' came at digital sideways. Pentax didn't have a DSLR to compete with the first generation NiCanon, so I bought a Nikon Coolscan IV ED which can make any 35mm film frame an 11 MP image.
'A' lenses will work with all Pentax DSLR bodies without much hassle at all.
'M' lenses (and screw mount lenses using the adapter) will work with all Pentax DSLR bodies, but you have to jump through a few hoops.
