better than the K100D
(clif - 2/3/09)I have had several point and shoot digital camera's over the past six years, then decided it was time for a DSLR. I bought a K100D when they first came out and was never very happy with the exposure system, always underexposed a little and the pictures were not very sharp. As time went by it only got worse so I sold the camera. I saw the 1st DL advertised new on the internet so thought I would try one. Bought one and love it, wins hands down between the two camera's. I've also noticed no difference at all not having anti shake, I think that feature is a little overplayed. This is a smaller lighter camera with all of the feature's you could ever want for the money, I paid $265 for this with the kit lens new in the box, so if you can still find a new one you won't go wrong.
