Good Points: Price, Functions, No apparent noise unless using high ISO, AA batteries, compatibility with older lenses.
Bad Points: AWB no good under tungsten light, some features buried deep in the menus.
General comments: I moved up to the K100D from a Canon A95 exactly one year ago, at first the prospect of learning a DSLR seemed daunting, but after reading the MANUAL several times and basically playing with the settings it became very easy to use. The 18-55 kit lens is a very good kit lens. Going back to other points made about pixels I can also say 6million is the right balance for a good A3 and A4 prints.A note for any potential DSLR newbies the Pentax K100D SUPER can be had for 279.00 at Argos this must be the bargain DSLR of the year so far.

Unless you are printing larger than this you are just wasting memory card space with higher resolution. For this reason I believe 6.1 megapixels is something of a sweetspot for a D ...

Don't worry that it is only 6 MP. I also use a Canon IXUS with 7 MP. The picture quality from the Pentax K100D is better. Print high quality pictures up to A4 on home printer.
