I also reject the "more is better" hype (especially as regards the never-ending megapixel chase) and find more joy and challenge in trying to do more with less.
I further reject the premise of having equipment which can stay in "competition". Competition with whom? For what?
The notion that the K100D is soon going to be
REALLY "outdated" strikes me as odd. Even "outdated" cameras in working order are still capable of turning out respectable images. Despite added/improved features and proliferation of electronic modes and settings, we're all each and every one of us still performing the same basic tasks that photographers have been performing since the beginning: Focus, set aperture, set speed, capture image.
My "outdated" early 1950s Wester Autorol (medium format rangefinder) requires me to set the shutter speed by turning a ring around the lens and set the aperture by moving a slide. The shutter speed requires me to turn the camera around so I can see the numbers.
As you can see, the images the camera is capable of suffer horribly from not having the latest whizbang electronic interface to set the shutter and aperture.
I love my K100D....together with its assortment of "outdated" 1960s lenses....and will ask to be excused from the feature/megapixel rat race, thanks very much.
