Pentax *ist DL Review at CNET
CNET have reviewed the new entry-level Pentax *ist DL digital SLR camera. The Pentax *ist DL is a 6.1 megapixel DSLR which features a 2.5 LCD screen and light 16 ounce body.
“Most casual users won’t notice the corners that Pentax cut to reduce the DL’s cost: a less sophisticated autofocusing system and a mirror in the viewfinder instead of a prism. Despite its slight stature and modest price point, the *ist DL handily produces crisp, vibrant photos that should please any photographer taking the step up from a digital point-and-shoot. Curious amateurs should definitely explore beyond the DL’s simplest options; a few automatic features, such as white balance, are handily outperformed by the camera’s manual settings.”
