      Pentax K100D

      By Jeff Keller

      Review summary: On the outside, the new Pentax K100D ($599 body only, $699 with lens) looks a lot like its predecessor, the *ist DS2. Pentax didn't just change the name, though (but I'm glad they did) -- inside the K100D is a CCD-shift image stabilization system. ...

      Pros: Very good photo quality ; low noise through ISO 800 ; Great value ; Image stabilization system works with all Pentax lenses ; Solid construction ; doesn't feel "cheap" despite the low price ; Large 2.5" LCD display ; Full manual controls, as you'd ...

      Cons: Buffer memory fills up way too quickly ; unimpressive continuous shooting mode as a result ; Performance not quite as good as other D-SLRs ; Some vignetting with kit lens ; Menus not terribly user friendly ; Limited white balance options (no fine ...

      Verdict: As is the case with all D-SLRs, Pentax does not include a memory card with the K100D, so you'll have to factor that into the total purchase price. The camera uses Secure Digital (SD) and MultiMediaCards, and if you're using firmware version 1.01 or ...

      Pentax K100D Super

      By Gavin Stoker

      Review summary: With a digital SLR camera you can produce superb photographs with strong technical attributes. The Macworld team take a look at six worthy contenders.

      Pros: Good value, responsive, easy to use, dust reduction system, ISO3200, sharp colourful images

      Cons: No rechargeable batteries supplied, weightier than competing models

      Verdict: Still, with the bundled 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL lens bolted to the front and plenty of light available, the results are crisp and colourful. This is an unfussy, user-friendly camera that has enough features for most amateur DSLR users. On test, it ...

      Pentax's K100D Super; The Digital K-Mount Revolution Continues

      By Joe Farace

      Review summary: In 1979 Pentax launched the ME Super as a manual focus, aperture-priority automatic SLR with an electronic focal plane shutter. It was small, light, and by all reports had excellent ergonomics. It used the by-then ubiquitous K-mount lens system and ...

      Verdict: The camera has a 6.1-megapixel APS-C-sized CCD and when combined with an 11-point autofocus mechanism and 16-segment multi-pattern metering delivers excellent image reproduction. The bright penta-mirror viewfinder features a 96 percent field of view ...

      Pentax K100D Super

      By Joanne Carter

      Review summary: Although essentially an upgrade to the K100D, with its diminutive dimensions, solid build and great picture quality, the latest Pentax has its roots in the past...

      Pros: Compact dimensions and solid construction, anti-shake compatibility with huge range of the makers legacy lenses, including early screw-fit.

      Cons: Lowly six-megapixel resolution. Inexcusably limited continuous shooting.

      Verdict: Ultimately, while we might recommend the K100D for hobbyists on a very tight budget taking their first step up from a compact camera, if you're looking for fast operation and highly detailed prints, there are far better choices available
