I purchased a K10D a couple of weeks ago, and am enjoying using it
, this is my first DSLR. For the last five years, I have been using Large Format equipment and Rangefinders, but can say I am enjoying using an SLR with zooms again and the flexibilty the approach brings.
I chose the Pentax, after some research as a good, value for money option. I am pleased with the Pentax, and am pleased by both the iimage quality and the usability.
I am an engineer by trade, and cycle in my free time, when I am not spending time with my family, and take photos whenever I can. The K10D will not be replacing my other equipment but certainly adds a new dimension.
