But will a better lense improve the performance of my DL2 in the same range in quality as say the K10D
You will get a better performance from your *istDL2 by upgrading your kit lens to the 16-45mm. This is the logical and simple answer IMHO.

The K10D has a higher resolution sensor, so using this there will be a further improvement in quality.

The trouble is, the more we go into this the more complex the answer becomes and probably less generally helpful as well, but I hope the summary given helps cut things down to the "nitty gritty".

There are lots of other options, but many are best suited to photographers who have considerable experience and the extra procedures some lenses will need will seem nothing to some, but unbelievably tedious to others...

No, the DL2 is the equal of all the 6MP Pentaxes. In fact, being the most recent, its JPEG performance could conceivably be the best.

"In My Humble Opinion" Sorry, just forum-speak that saves a lot of key strokes!

I have a D and a DL2. Both have their good and bad points but I pretty much interchange the use of them and there is no real noticeable difference in the results.
