Review on πŸ“· Pentax K100D 6.1MP Digital SLR Camera with Shake Reduction and 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens by Debbie Markovich

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A word of caution

There is no point in repeating what has already been said about this camera. This is a great camera - and a really great camera at an affordable price. But with one major caveat: it doesn't support an SD memory card larger than 2GB. But that's not bad news: The bad news is how difficult it is to find an SD memory card with only 2GB of storage. It doesn't even need a 4GB SD card. By pure coincidence I ended up with a 2 GB card. But I decided to get more. At first glance you will almost certainly not find a 2GB card in any retail store. so you have to get it online. Oh, by the way, Revain doesn't have the SanDisk SDDSB 2048-P36 I ordered; So I tried to order a replacement. I'll update this to say if Revain has that replacement. I also ordered a 2GB card from Kohl (other brand: EB); I'll see if that works. The thing is, before you buy this camera - no matter how good it is - I strongly recommend that you first make sure you can get a 2GB memory card for it. One more note: Pentax K100-D is a true enforcer; So better get CRV-3 batteries (you need two);

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • Almost everything is there
