Yes I love my NX100, with a P\K adaptor, its pretty much the digital K1000 body that I wanted. Even though it has a bit of noise at high ISO (the NX100 is pretty much a k20 sensor), it works with post processing black and white since its mostly luminance noise. It works brilliantly with m42 and k glass in manual or apt priority. The samsung lenses are wonderful too, affordable, great optics, and 16mm, 20mm, 30mm, 45mm, 60 macro, and 85mm primes. Pentax should try for the same lens roadmap for some affordable DA primes. I just got a k5 from a forum member because I wanted to use my m42 and k lenses with a dslr body. As William Faulkner would say,
The past is never
dead.
It's not even past."
