thanks for the comments , the fact that I've always been a Pentax 35mm person sways me to the K100D.

The fact that I already have the 80-320mm is a bonus.

Does the fact that the K100D is only a 6 mp camera make it any less a performer ? as opposed an 8 or 10 mp DSLR ?? I asked Jessops if I could call in and shoot a couple of shots on the K100D , provide my own SD Card , this would enable me to judge the results on my PC at home before diving in blind. They said it was not possible to do that as once the camera in the shop had been used to take a pic then it was classed as second hand , I couldn't even take my 80 -320mm in to try it !

Any 100D owners care to post some sample pics , I mainly take photo's of aircraft so the camera needs to be responsive and accurate...

Thanks

Hi newbie here , just contemplating a good offer on the K100D at £299 in the UK. Wavering on the fence at the moment !

I am currently using a Fuji S9500 , and haVe a Pentax MZ-5N with the 80-320mm Pentax Zoom.

Anybody use this lens on a K100D , K110D or K10D , or IST D/DS.

Is it okay and whats the quality like for digital use , comments welcome and any sample pics with this lens would be appreciated.
