Default Its in the mail almost!

The order is being processed at this very moment (thank you Adorama) but I just upgraded to my first DSLR! I'm getting a Pentax K-x. I'm keeping the S5 but in the near future I'll be putting a mint 430EXII up for sale exclusively on DPS. So keep an eye out!

Agreed! 50D is an excellent camera, and large! I went with something that's a bit more travel friendly

After long research on the web and going into shops and playing with every camera in sight that was within my budget, I narrowed it down to the D5000 and the K-x. When I held the Pentax in my hands that was it. SOLD!
