Comments:
Pentax updates its DSLR range and thankfully comes up with a new name in the process.

Review Verdict: It may be the cheapest DSLR on the market, but the Pentax K100D isn't short of advanced features, performance or image quality, and can comfortably hold its own against the Nikon D40. Build quality, design and handling are all superb, and the Shake Reduct

Product Rating: 4 star(s) Pentax K100D (4mice)

Comments:
Because of its 6.1-megapixel sensor, you won't be able to enlarge the K100D's images as much as you can with a higher resolution camera, but for users who want a DSLR, and all of the flexibility that it provides, the K100D is a great entry-level camera, a

Review Verdict: For an entry-level camera, the K100D doesn't skimp on interface features. Sporting a bright 2.5-inch rear-mounted LCD, the K100D also provides a top-mounted LCD status display--something that a lot of entry-level cameras eschew, but which is especially we

Product Rating: 4 star(s) Pentax K100 D DSLR digital camera

Comments:
- The K100D is a compact well specified D-SLR that in terms of its retail price takes on the likes of Nikon's D50 but is specified closer to the Canon EOS 400D. It also replaces its predecessor, the *ist DS2. There's a lot of camera here for your money, s

Review Verdict: The K100D is a well-specified little D-SLR that looks like a mid-range model in specification terms but priced to fit the budget end of the market

Product Rating: 5 star(s) Pentax K100D

Comments:
The K100D and K110D digital SLRs were announced in May 2006, aimed as a straight replacement for the *ist DS series (actually the DS2) these two SLRs are designed to appeal to the affordable end of the digital SLR market but don't compromise on features.

Review Verdict: When we reviewed the *ist DS it was a camera which equally surprised and disappointed; on one hand it was one of those cameras which functioned beyond its expectation or billing, and on the other it disappointed with its relatively poor in-camera image pr

QuickTake:

Pros: About as good as six megapixel resolution gets, crisp and detailed, a big improvement, Excellent detail even at higher ISO's, overall noise levels on par with competition, Effective long exposure noise reduction (necessary too), Accurate and fast auto-foc
Cons: Limited continuous shooting capability, buffer only large enough for four JPEG frames, Over-saturated default image tone ('Bright'), can lead to channel clipping, Relatively loud shutter release, Slightly humorous user interface compromise ('Cntnuos expsr

Pentax K100D

Comments:
Is Pentax on to a winner with its first K mount DSLR featuring a shake-reduction system?....

Review Verdict: There's a lot to recommend the Pentax. I like the camera's design, if not the menu, and it can produce the goods if you treat it with care. Certainly image quality is potentially excellent, but there is an issue with the camera's metering system. If you'

Pentax K100D Digital Camera - Review

Comments:
The Pentax K100D, along with its sibling the K110D, are the company's first DSLR models to forgo the rather confusing "*istD" branding. Both share an identical (newly developed) body and feature set, with the exception of an anti-shake mechanism - found o

Review Verdict: The Pentax K100D stores images on optional Secure Digital or MultiMediaCards, in either Raw (uncompressed) or JPEG (compressed) formats. Connectivity includes both NTSC / PAL switchable video output and a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed computer link, as well as a DC in
