Hello, I'd like to join the 'club'. Just purchased a k100D and here is my first shot. I am very pleased with the camera handling and color rendition. Pentax k100D, SMC Pentax F 50mm, 1/1000 sec, f/8, 200iso. Haven't attached a file before so I hope this works.

Here is a stab at posting a photo. Taken with a Pentax K100D which I just purchased from eBay. |

Thank you all so much for jumping in. I also had a Pentax FA 31mm stashed away and I tried that and the autofocus worked fine. Now the backstory of how I had the 28-105 DFA lens. I purchased a K1 Mii and bought several lenses for that camera. Due to health issues, I have not been able to use it yet or try it out but that time is coming shortly.
I purchased the k100d on a whim last week, because of the CCD sensor. I don't know why I am so excited about that camera. My first digital SLR, now long gone, was a Nikon D100 and it had a CCD sensor. I always liked the images from the D100. It seems like the K100d is built much better than the d100. For my purposes, the k100d is just for enjoyment, it was less than $100, and seems to produce excellent images. I've always been a bit mystified about Pentax lens compatibility, but I thank you all for clearing that up.

Check the custom functions. In the owners manual it states that the frame counter can be set to count backwards using Pentax function 7. Functions start on page 76 of the owners manual.
