    Well, I finally bit the bullet and spent the money to get a DSLR.

    Hey Seafood –

    Don’t think we disrespect Pentax just because we don’t talk about them.

    I just got back from Charleston SC over the weekend, doing a photography workshop. One of the students had that particular Pentax DSLR and I was impressed. During our evening breakout session, I looked good and hard at his files on my laptop and they were extremely clean. Very impressed.

    Great features, solid build. I think you did good!

    Seafood,

    Believe me when I tell you this: the camera is only a small part of the photograph. Where, when and what you shoot, how you compose it, and what you do with it after the fact, are way more important than brand name or how much you paid.

    You’ve got a fine tool there. Your job now is to learn how to get the most out of it. It’s not perfect (none of them are; I don’t have anything specific) but basically all the DSLRs (and most point-and-shoots) will produce excellent results if you know what you’re doing. I try to never blame the camera when I screw up a shot, and I try to never give it credit for the good ones.

    Have fun, and learn all you can.

    John
