Pentax
UK has announced pricing for the *ist D digital SLR and Kits. The *ist
D camera body is is priced at £1,400 (inc VAT), the *ist D with
the SMC 18 - 35 mm F4.0 - F5.6 lens £1,529.99 (other lens kits will
also be available). This places the *ist D along side the Olympus E-1
at the £1,400 point, we will have to hope that these prices will
drop slightly to bring the *ist D more in line with the price of the EOS-10D
(around £1,250 inc VAT). Of course it will be interesting to see
what effect the arrival of the EOS-300D in shops will have on all of these
recently announced digital SLR's.
