ist DL vs. ist DS2

Anonymous · 2005-10-02T03:39:04+0100

Hello everybody. I'm new to this forum. I like Pentax from the old SLR film cameras but I don't know much about the *ist DSLR models. Unfortuantely, there isn't much about them on the Internet. From what I could read, I don't see any major difference between the DL and the DS2. I'll appreciate it if you Pentax experts can explain. Are there reviews of those models posted somewhere? Thanks.

If you're into seriously using a camera, professionally or not, the D is the one that is geared towards more serious users. If you can live with menu-diving, and the lack of easy control, then the other models will give you the same quality image.

I am waiting for the sucessor to the D, it'll be next fall according to rumors. Meanwhile, a few more consumer models are sure to come out.
