Consumer Feedback

"If you're moving from a point and shoot digital camera (I had a Kodak Easyshare Z612 6MP), this thing is going to blow it away!"

"I just got the Pentax K200D and it is amazing, my first thoughts when I was handling it were how solid the camera was! Especially compared to the Canon Digital Rebel XSi and Nikon D40! The Kit lens is also amazing, it's very sharp and has a decent manual focusing ring"

"This camera delivers outstanding image quality with very good dynamic range. The jpegs straight out of the camera are great and you can extensively customize the several picture modes available to deliver the jpegs exactly the way you like them. When you graduate to shooting raw, you will find that the raw files have a lot of headroom for recovering highlights."
