K10D Coming!

dufruf · 02-14-2007, 03:44 PM

Today I ordered my K10D with battery grip and the Sigma 17-70 f2.8 Macro lens. I was on the fence between the Pentax and a Nikon D80.
Thank you all for pushing me in the right direction. I can't wait to learn and produce good pictures.

Thanks again
Mike

I too was torn between the k10d and the d80, and I am sooooooo happy with my k10d. You will love it!

Both are good cameras, but one is better.. was a tough choice for me too as my son has a D70s and I previously BD (before digital) had an F401s which was superb.

Loving the K10D so far, welcome to the forum of the great images!
