Just got my new K200D yesterday and, of course, had to try it out immediately. Discovered some definate differences between it and my older *ist DS:
- AF is quicker on K200D
- Low-light AF seems to be improved (impression only, no side-by-side comparo)
- Love the larger rear screen (2.7" vs 2.0")
- SR is great - handheld a 1 sec shot and got "ok" results
- Lots more to learn!! (Not sure this is a good thing!!
)
- New menu is both less and more confusing (I NEED to RTFM!!)
- Ergonomics are different - *ist DS actually fits my hand better, but the K200D works just fine - just need to get used to it.
- Not too sure about the viewfinder - DS seems brighter, but I have a Katz Eye screen in it - need to check this out more
All-in-all, I know I'm going to love the K200D - just a lot more camera than the DS.
