Re: *ist DS

Ahhh. Nostalgia.

The *istDS was my first DSLR too - a silver one - although I had plenty of Pentax SLRs before it.  It's still sitting on a shelf above my computer and I still fire it up from time to time.  A couple of years ago the shutter release failed and, although it didn't make sense economically (I'd pretty much retired it by then), I got it repaired. Couldn't bare to see it languish in a cupboard  ;-)>

Mark mentioned slow AF.  Perhaps, but at the time (2005-2009) I had nothing quicker to compare it with. Seemed OK then.

I like the first two shots - the third doesn't do much for me though.

Have fun with it!

Cheers

Brian
