How about the FA 28-200? Isn't that a re-badge of sorts?

As far as lenses go, like I said, it would totally suck to have to buy all
new glass and flash guns, but OTOH, in the long run, I need to give my
clients the best quality shots that I can afford, and the Canon and Nikkor
lenses aren't exactly lacking
It's no longer current. Tamron is making a new version and
Pentax USA no longer lists it on it's web page. It's a good
bet that the only way you could get it new is new old stock.

Hello Tanya,
I think that you need to try the bodies. Usually, the lower end
bodies have pretty good paper specs, but their handling is not all
that good, especially when you start to manually control things.
Before I bought mine, I went down and tried them several times. I had

To all that has been said I would like to add that the battery grip that you can
get for the *ist D is a wonderfull accessory that makes the camera a joy to
hold in portrait orientation - and it looks v*e*r*y cool!
And, there is the finder magnification. When you are used to film cameras (even

Hello Tanya,
As to people not buying Pentax just for lenses - I chose the *istD
body on the merits of the body, not the lenses. In the world of
digital, the body does make much more difference than for film
cameras.
When getting the *istD, this is how I outfitted it with lenses:

Hi Tan,
It's also been my understanding that several (maybe quite a
few) Pentax lenses are just rebadged Tamron or Tokina
glass. I have also heard that Minolta (I knew this) and
SIGMA! have produced lenses for Leica. I don't know the
degree of Sigmas involvement, whether they just produced the
Well, there is a fact that things are not like they were back in the 60's when
highend camera makers made only highend lenses. Now, like automobiles, a
manufacturer makes cheap cameras, mid-line cameras, and high-end cameras. They
also make lenses in each of those quality ranges. A cheap lens

Question to *istD owners - does it have automatic rotation of images when
you are shooting them in a portrait hold? I am finding this very time
consuming and tiresome, having to
