"I’m quite sure that the two major players, Canon and Nikon, will copy a lot of these solutions eventually. Another thing you need to know – the K10D is not a point and shoot camera. In other words, it will take time before you are thoroughly familiar with it. There are a lot custom settings, and you will have to find the ones that are the most important to your style. However, once you’re past the learning stage, there are very few ways in which the camera will limit your creativity. For me personally, the K10D is, technically speaking, a notch above other hobbyist cameras. Its direct competition, the Nikon D80 and the Canon EOS 30D, and to some extent the Sony Alpha, all have their unique advantages. However, if you’re currently buying a camera and you’re not interested in entry level cameras (Canon 400D, Olympus E-400, Nikon D40, Pentax K100D), then the Pentax K10D should be on your shortlist. Weather sealing, good ergonomics, direct access to all main functions via buttons, image stabilisation in the body, (limited) sensor cleaning and almost infinite customisation options are an immense advantage over its competition.
The K10D is something of a revelation - an excellent body loaded with features that produces high-quality images"
