Love it.

(Paul - 10/14/06)

I find the K100D easy to use.
I'm very pleased with the results and very happy with the battery life,... Using the Lithium one use batteries, I'm still on my first set.

(Don't bother with Alkaline batts..)

Compared to my Minolta 7i which would eat a set of these same batteries in what seemed like a few hours. This thing keeps going and going.

I'll leave all the technical reviews for the pros out here.
I will say this camera does a nice job of taking night shots with the shutter open for 30" or more.

Using my old Pentax and Chinon lenses proved no problem.

It's a keeper.....
