Pentax K100D Super
(3.5 out of 5)
MSRP: $599
The feature-rich Pentax K100D Super is a surprisingly strong purchase for budget-conscious DSLR users.
For a budget digital SLR, the Pentax K100D Super looks and feels like a serious customer. It sports a rugged, rubberized grip that fits comfortably into large hands, a professional-looking black matte body, and a huge viewfinder. Performance-wise, it's not bad, and the K100D Super has an excellent feature set for a camera that sells for less than $600 with an 18-55mm lens. Most noteworthy is the camera's built-in Shake Reduction system, which helped reduce blur in our shots by automatically adjusting the imaging sensor at high speed. The K100D Super also has a built-in dust-removal system that features a special coating on the imaging sensor to prevent dust from sticking. Any dust that gets by the coating is shaken off the sensor when the CCD is shifted during Shake Reduction. This one-two punch was effective in keeping our images spot-free.
