What details are you looking for?
In terms of the finders, So far Pentax have only used 3 finders in their DSLRs
0.95x, 95% Pentaprism in
*istD, *istDS, *istDS2, K10D, K20D
0.85x, 96% Pentamirror in
*ist DL, *ist DL2, K100D, K110D, K200D, K-m, K-x
0.92x, 100% Pentaprism in
K-7

That's the idea ! a side by side comparison of the 5 models would be good.
Sure I saw one on here !? thought it was a sticky !?

Definitely never a sticky, but I think it was a single post in the middle of a thread.

That's all on the Dimitrov site I think. What details are you looking for?

The DL & DL2 had the pentamirror the D, DS and DS2 had the penta prism.
If you can't say something nice about Pentax, you won't say anything at all.

It is once you realise that all the 0.85x finders are mirror and all the 0.95x finders are prism.Mongoose wrote:

Other than that one fact I can't think of an important detail which isn't on Bojidar's site, that place is a gold mine.

It's all very well detailed on PentaxForums too !
But I just wanted it in a single document, as a table perhaps, rather than having to flit back and forth between pages

I don't know of a more concise reference than Bojidar, but if you have specific features in mind I'm pretty sure I know the *ist models feature set off the top of my head in more detail than 99% of people could ever be interested in (I bought a DL2, and I like to do my research before a purchase!).

Don't worry John, I got lost sometimes too on this forum
It was that I remember I saw it once in the FAQ section or else I wouldn't have known
