  6. WhatDigitalCamera Says:

    Yes you can.

  7. guglio1290 Says:

    Can I use my Pentax K-mount FILM lenses on it???

  8. tomcat39843 Says:

    Yes, this camera is not the best model for sports photography, but:
    * other cameras in this class do not have more buttons either
    * the “10-clicks away” menu item can be reached quicker when accessing it from the bottom
    * the camera has an extra LCD display at the top which many other models are missing
    * the camera does support modern USM lenses, but also has a built-in focus motor to support older/classic lenses.
    * the built-in shake reduction saves a lot of money on non SR/VR lenses

    Don’t use alkaline batteries, use lithium batteries, or better NiMH accumulators. Mine seem to last forever.

    use energizer E squared lithium batteries they last seven times as long as any oth battery in a camera

    I have this Camera now about one year and I never had such a Problem with this Camera. Maybe you need some better batteries.

  13. bewsen Says:

    why didnt he say something about the battery problem? it ***** having to change or reload your batterys every 2 hours or so..

  14. myotis33 Says:

    got it, like it :)

  15. PPWarrior Says:

    loll it’s so true… but anyway I bought an k100d ’cause of a budget problem but it’s still a good camera for beginner and it is well balenced. I’m doing a lot of Macro photography and, no problem with bright sun or shadow.
