Originally posted by Shanti Hi my niece needs a starter camera,thought the K50 or K5IIs + 18-135mm lens would be good for her. Maybe the K5IIs is too heavy? teenage girl, but I know nothing of the K50,is it good? should we wait till after CIPA as new model is coming,probably same price range??
I told her either Pentax or Oly Em5 as both are in her price range,but as a beginner not sure about EVF--I prefer OVF but maybe the Oly is not soo bad
I have the K5II & at $500 its a steal for the s version,but weight may be a problem,as she will carry it everywhere
any suggestions from the K50 group?? or Em5 owners
Thanks
The K-50 and a 18-135mm is a good place to start.
