Latest Review Posted | Pentax K-r Originally, I bought a k-x for $400, but had to send it back cuz the edial was broken. With the k-x, i hated the fact that the lcd was so low-res it wasnt really possible to see how the photo came out. also, the lack of focus light-up spots in the viewfinder made it difficult to see what it was focusing on, sometimes.
Then i found a k-r with the 18-55 and 55-300 for a little under 500 shipped. fantastic price, so i snapped it up, and have been thrilled with it ever since. i did play around with an old canon 20d for a few days, and obviously there's no comparison.
the k-r in general has handled just about everything i've thrown at it, the only real limitations have been cuz of the lenses.
in short, im really happy with it and it's been really wonderful. |
