Hi thekevinmonster.
I have a Pentax K10D and I can tell you that I am very happy with it. A big advantage, from my point of view, is the "sealed" body that allows me to shot in bad atmospheric conditions. I have used the camera in storms and flood rain and thank God and the lads from Pentax, i didnt have any problems. The shake reduction is also a great thing but one feature that i keep seeing as a big advantage is the Shutter and Aperture Priority (TAV). Basically you select both the shutter speed (front dial) and aperture (rear dial) and the camera calculates the appropriate ISO sensitivity. Great thing...pity I am not a good photographer to avail of all these features

but with the help of all the users here, i hope I will improve
Regards
Ovidiu
P.S By the way..A big hello to all of you. This is my first post.
