Pentax K-x is great camera July 28, 2010 Shaw (FL) I couldn't beat the price for this entry level DSLR. It's got all the features I want, a neat look and is overall sturdy. I went with Pentax because all their older lenses (even going back into the '70s) work with the new cameras. They don't have the pull of Nikon or Canon, but they still have a good reputation with a small cultish community backing Pentax products.
I went with this specific model because of the good price vs quality ratio, fast firing speed and unique look.
I have traveled everywhere with this camera and it has survived. I didn't expect metal casing/heavy plastic or weather sealing at this price level, but the addition of this would have put it over the top.

This was purchased as a gift for my daughter. I am sorry to say that I regret buying it and it is now too late to return it. Her cellphone takes better pictures. This device is of terribly poor quality. Buyer beware.
Nice starter July 16, 2010 Lia I am not a picture person. I have never been the "point and shoot in my pocket at all times" kind of girl. I did decide that taking photographs might be something I could get into, however. I chose this camera for some features it has over others in the lower price range (mp, in-camera filters, LV). I haven't even gotten around to ordering the rechargeable batteries yet b/c the first set just died after something like 1200 pictures.
This camera has not disappointed. I am already aware of the weakness of the kit lense, but that will be the next thing I decide to spoil myself with. Any recommendations for a macro/portrait kind of shooter?
Produces amazing images! July 9, 2010 Joseph R. Mentink (Kewaskum, Wisconsin United States) A first time DSLR buyer, I am very pleased with the ease of use (user manual very helpful to get new owner started) and the results that this camera can produce. Matched with the used 1970s vintage "beginning photography" book I also purchased via Amazon, I am confident with my stormtrooper white K-x after only 2 weeks "practice and experimentation". If you're a beginner, take a chance with this camera, as it is nearly self-navigates to create wonderful images. I am now in search of a reasonably priced Pentzx DA 55mm-300mm zoom lens.
Best Camera i've ever owned! July 9, 2010 Kennedyy.lynn This Camera is amazing, definitely the best entry level Dslr on
the market, by far! it's light weight, stylish, easy to use, while
also having advanced features, such as the in camera processing, which
spares you from purchasing such software, i highly recommend this camera.
