Hi Yusuf.
I have a K10D, now a bit dated, but still a good camera, which ever Pentax, you choose, I am sure you will be very pleased.
Not biased of course.
Take care.

G'day and welcome Yusuf. A good K10D, or else a used Kr might be a good start?

The important thing in my opinion is not to fuss too much. Find a camera you like and buy it. A better camera won't make you a better photographer overnight.
Then if you decided it is something you want to pursue you can add lenses (which for Pentax can be bought cheaply and hold their value well) and look to a newer camera when you feel you can't go any more with the one you have.

Personally any of the pentax digital cameras can produce very good results handled correctly. or poor results if handled badly. It matters not how much you pay. Experience is key..
Though I to would point you the the K-x deals around,,

Hi Yusuf
I used a K10D for a couple of years and found it excellent. I have since 'upgraded' to a K7 and may soon (subject to finance) get a K5. K7 takes great photos but like a number of people I get carried away by the latest, newest and improved model - and that does not necessarily apply to cameras!!!!
A s/h K10D will be a good starter for you.
Cheers....John

You may find a K10 is all the camera you ever need, depending, of course, on what type of pictures you intend, or end up, taking. A s/h K10D will be a good starter for you.
But my views on this camera are not as valid as those who have owned later models with CMOS sensors.
If you can obtain a K10 for a reasonable sum, you could spend more money on petrol so that you can travel to interesting places and take lots of different photographs.
Good luck with whatever you choose and enjoy your photography!
Best wishes,
Andrew

The K10D is an excellent camera and will give good service.
