In the category of things that I sometimes want, but really can’t afford, here is the new Pentax *ist DL, a digital SLR. All of the reviews I’ve read of this new gadget suggest that it’s a really good combination of features for not a lot of money. Just what I’m looking for….
I’ve been really reluctant to make the transition to using digital imaging (I love my film). But, if I can have some consistent level of control, i.e. all of the control I have with my traditional SLR, I might be willing to do it.
Give it a few months, and some more discounting and I might start here.
