  • Good camera.

    A good camera ... a bit dated but excellent to learn dslr on a budget ... I can use my older slr pentax lenses in the manual mode or the auto functions of the earlier programed 35mm cameras ... I am having a lot of fun learning with it and a bonus I can experiment with settings befor I go back and use my older 35mm cameras which is my major focus ... cheers.

    A gem of a camera, easy to use and I've always preferred the CCD image sensor of the currently used CMOS.
