Is the only difference between this and the K100D Super the dust removal?
You can't knock the addition of sensor cleaning and sdm-lens compatibility, they're very welcome. However, a bit more spec-upgrading would have been nice to warrant the Super tag. With a good build quality, helpful beginner modes and largely easy-to-use controls you have a lightweight, yet solid camera, that's going to make it easy for the Pentax film upgrader or the newcomer to digital, to gain confidence in the DSLR world. The K100D Super has a better build quality than either the Canon or Nikon entry-level efforts.

So aftr all the reviews, could I easily swap the K-m bodyfor a K7 and she who must be obeyed / has no interest in photography notice the difference?
It would be a shame not to get the new WR kit lens though.
Re video, it's just the latest keeping up with the Joneses thing, although by the look of it Pentax have gone way beyond the bare minimum. I would love HD video, but if Pentax did a K-7 'lite' (the ME Super to the K-7's LX) without HD and a few other features, for a bit less money, I would buy that one. It's the build quality/compact design/improved sensor that do it for me.

Well the camera is extremely clean, metering is spot on, it's easy to tweak the ISO, and it's pretty. So it's a keeper!

But what's this:
doomed to wander in their footsteps taking pictures that have already been taken.

Hi,
I've just downloaded RawShooterEssentials but it does not appear to support the K10D. Is that correct?
Dave
However, DNG files should be fine!

One can imagine the advert where Nikon and Canon users have to rush for cover in a rainstorm, and the Pentaxian keeps on shooting... (That idea is copyrighted btw lol).

According to the exec, the next Samsung GX model will likely be more compact than its predecessors for starters. Likewise, Kim notes in the conversation that the 2009 will be a "bigger change" from what Samsung is currently offering than the GX20 was from the GX10.
