I had a Canon P&S and I was coaxed into a Christmas present since everyone else in the family was getting a new camera. I got the most expensive toy. The Pentax K2000 (and the 18-55 kit lens) was on clearance and then some(<$400). Next was the AA's which i already had. I also liked the in camera SR.
The bad:
- Battery life stunk.
- Being the clearance camera, no accessories, no strap, no software, no lens cover, front, back or hood, no camera cover.
The good:
- love having DSLR, pictures snap QUICKLY.
- Lots of point and click options until i learn to use the camera.
- After firmware upgrade, my AA's last.
- This applies for all cameras: lens, i now have more lens. a 50mm, an 80-200 and a 28-200.
Would i do it again? Yes.
I also bought a camera bag, a Pentax zx-30 that came with the 28-200 lens, screen protector, monopod (already had a tripod), and other assorted gadgets.
