I came to Pentax from Fuji's superzoom camp. I never had SLR/DSLR before, never had any lenses. But:
- I'm cost aware, I like the size and feel of K100D, I like the brand's history, I like the SR, I like the compatibility with old (cheap) manual lenses, I like the pancake ltds, shall I continue?
At the time I was choosing, there were 3 other competitors: Oly e500, EOS350D, Nikon D50.
D50 was for long time on top (I was comparing with *ist DL2) but when K100D came out I didn't hesitate for a moment...
And I'm happy eversince...
except I'd like to have K10D
