Taken from the Sigma website:
DF (Dual Focus) System
The DF (Dual Focus) system disengages the linkage between the internal focusing mechanism and outer focusing ring when the focusing ring is moved to the AF position. This system provides easy and precise handling of the lens, since the focusing ring does not rotate during autofocusing. The wide focusing ring also enables easy and accurate manual focusing. DG (DG Lens) These are large-aperture lenses with wide angles and short minimum focusing distances. With an abundance of peripheral illumination, they are ideal lenses for Digital SLR Cameras whilst retaining suitability for traditional 35mm SLRs.

Pros | Small and lightweight, great all around performance, HD video, lots of fun digital filters, very low noise at high ISOs Cons | no AF points, LCD could be better Rating | 9 Price (U.S. Dollars) | 500 Years Owned | 3 months |
I can recommend this camera: Yes Value, Features, Performance & Size
Please see my main review below. Camera Review
I'm very new to the Pentax line of equipment and I must say so far its been great. I recently bought a pentax k-x going from a Nikon D90 mainly because of size and weight. I researched so much on which camera will perform as well as the Nikon D90 but much lighter and smaller and I finally found the perfect one - the Pentax K-x.
It passed my 2 major requirements which is size and weight. During the time I had my D90, I always find myself getting tired of having it in my hand and my neck and also not to mention bringing a big bag where I can keep it. With the Pentax K-x, I hardly notice that I have it. I just have it hanging around my neck and I never felt tired because its so light and since its smaller, I was able to get a smaller lowepro bag to carry with me that's really comfortable.
As for the Pros, I can say that they perform right about the same. Picture quality is the same, I didn't notice any difference on AF, I think the HD video is much better on the K-x plus it lets me record longer clips depending on the size of your memory card, images at higher ISO I think are really much better on the K-x - very very low noise, battery life is about the same - the lithium batteries that came with it I think I was able to pull of around 750 to 1000 shots, live view is ok - I use it when I use my manual lenses, metering seems to perform the same as the D90, as for the Menus, I think it was user friendly as I didn't have a hard time going thru then one more thing I found really good are the digital filters which are fun to use.
As for the Cons, the lack of the AF points I had to compromise but so far I have been ok with it, the LCD I wish it could've been larger and better resolution as you won't really see how good the image is until you transfer it to your computer but again no big deal.
Overall I think the Pentax K-x is really a good value for its price and the features you get out of it. I gave it a 9/10 just because of the 2 cons that I have but so far I've been happy with my decision!

Does anyone here have samples using the miniature digital filter for the Pentax K-x? I've been wanting to do one myself but I don't know what should be the ideal situation for it.
Thanks!

Wow! Thanks for all the responses guys! I really appreciate it.
Looking at the Vanguard alta pro and the sunpak and slik sprint pro looks to be good choices too.

thanks guys! ghosstrider I did a little search on the tiltall and they are very interesting
billx2 yeah I've looked at manfrotto but I can't afford em right now. I guess I should start saving up more to get a really good one. Like what you guys said, you get what you pay for.

been thinking about it for a while then just decided to invest on a nice glass instead of upgrading to the k-r =)

thanks for the quick response. I do like the better LCD but aside from that everything else works for me and don't really see it worth that much. I guess I'll invest on good glass for now.

So I got a Pentax K-x right now, is it really worth it to upgrade to the Pentax K-r? or just invest my money on lenses right now?
