These are from the 18-55 DAL; nice little lens capable of some very nice results. Downsides (at least with my copy) are that it's prone to a lot of flare with the sun just inside or outside the edges of the frame, and colors and detail can be muddied in high contrast light without careful attention to technique.

Not a deep technical review, but I always enjoy reading what the fellows at Luminous Landscape write about in terms of usability from an enthusiast's/pro's perspective on camera gear.

I had the opportunity to photograph with a few cameras from various manufacturers before I plunked down for my first dslr, a Pentax K-x. The camera I had shot with previous to the K-x was a Canon 50D.
The difference in dynamic range and color rendering between the 50D and the K-x was startling. The Canon wasn't even close unless I had it in controlled lighting or the best of outdoor conditions. I got some incredible results out of the 50D, but there was a lot of time and frustration spent in PP to get those results. With the K-x PP is very minimal at least 95% of the time. The 50D did have fantastic resolution; it was just an arduous, and sometimes impossible, task to get that out of the files.
The K-x really is an amazing camera. The only thing I feel it gives up to some of it's more expensive siblings and higher tiered cameras from other manufacturers is dedicated controls.

Looks like MJ over at The Online Photographer has chosen the K-5 as his first dslr in many years.
