Pentax *ist DS Review at Photo.net

Pentax *ist DSPhoto.net have posted their review of the 6 megapixel Pentax *ist DS DSLR.

“The intuitive, rapid handling of the *istDS, combined with its fairly compact size has made more than one of us wonder about the possibility of street/candid photography. Although a bit noisier (audible noise, not pixel noise) than a rangefinder, this DSRL isn’t really much more intrusive. Theory aside, the camera was both capable and enjoyable to use in this context; if you can believe it, I even felt at ease leaving my Leica M6 at home during most of the trial. Given the high rate of misses when you’re chasing (and, in my case, routinely missing) decisive moments, the zero cost of digital capture is also a huge bonus.”
