Hey all.
I currently have the K100D and I want to get into portrait and wedding photography. I think I'm going to upgrade my lens to a 70mm f2.4 DA Limited (anyone appose this decision)?
If I were to upgrade this lens, would it be worth keeping the K100D for this lens or is an upgrade absolutely necessary to use it? In other words, I know the K100D has it's limitations as far as shutter speed and such. Will having a lens with a f2.4 make a drastic difference with this camera. (I currently have the kit lens DA 3.5-5.6 18mm-55mm). Is the K100D a "joke" for portrait photography even with a good lens?
If an upgrade is recommended, which camera would you suggest (not the most expensive please :) ). I've heard the K5 had problems. Have they been resolved sense?
I've done some research and searched the boards but it can get VERY confusing when you have hundreds of opinions pointing their fingers at different items. I'm really just looking for a camera and a lens that are compatible with each other for portraits and weddings without completely breaking the bank.
Thank you very much for the read and help! much appreciated. :)
