James,
Same people who were saying two years ago that Pentax was doomed
because they lacked a digital SLR are the gloom and doom mavens of
today. Buy an *ist digital and use it with your Pentax glass. Bigger
and better digital stuff will come along every 6 to 18 months. You
won't want to spend your money on it. In 5 years, the *ist Ds really
will be obsolete and you can change brands them. My bet is you will
replace it with a newer Pentax digital because the value is in the
brand.
This market is still very fluid and you don't need to chase it.
I get a big smile on my face when people here talk about puting their
screwmount Pentax lenses on their digitals. It's still about the
glass...
Regards, Bob S.
