Pentax K100D DSLR Review - Affordable DSLR

With the rising megapixel rate of regular compacts, DSLRs can be both daunting and uneconomical for many. While most entry-level DSLR cameras come with a price tag ranging above US$800, you will be amazed to find out how much Pentax is offering its latest DSLR. For US$700, the new entry-level 6.1-megapixel K100D is perhaps one of the most affordable DSLRs to date.

Pentax’s move to introduce a DSLR under US$800 has surely brought hope to many students who are into photography or the budding photo journalist. The K100D is indeed one of the easiest to use and the most affordable DSLR to date. Overall, we would strongly recommend the K100D, but remember, for any DSLR, you’re essentially buying into a system and not just a camera.
