"Awesome camera. Amazingly sharp lens."
Pros: Size, ease of use for novice and enthusiast alike.
Cons: Continuous AF only accessible from Sport mode.
Summary: Having used the Digital Rebel, D70, and the 20D, the Pentax IstDS impressed me quite a bit. It has a much better lens package than the Rebel and the base 20D kit. It offers a more well rounded group of features than the rebel, but falls short on the pro side when compared to the D70 or the 20D. In short, I bought it.
However, to rate a confusing name of a camera as a downside is, well, idiotic. It's like rating a car badly because you didn't like the colour of the test model. It has absolutely no bearing on performance. Your credibility in reviews has gone down a bit in my eyes.
