Camera buying: Pentax K-S1
« on: Sun, 27 December 2015, 15:51:43 »
I'm thinking about buying this kit: http://www.adorama.com/IPXKS1B1855.html
as my first real camera and I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with Pentax DSLRs. What are the pros and cons of this camera and if any other cameras can compare in terms of cheap lenses as the Pentax K-mount is compatible with a lot of cheaper lenses. If i'm wrong please let me know!

If you want to take a look at my Olympus E-M5 I can bring it on Tuesday. We can talk about the Pentax if you're able to wait that long.
I'm back.
