Pentax K100D Digital SLR Review at Wired

Wired have reviewed the new 6 megapixel digital SLR, the Pentax K100D, it features a built in anti-shake CCD sensor, as found on the Konica Minolta Maxxum Dynax 5D and 7D (and the new Sony A100), this allows any lens used on the Digital SLR to benefit from anti-shake, allowing blur free low light or long zoom photos. The camera features a 2.5" screen. The K100D with kit lens is available for £369!

"Pentax’s retro-cool K100D offers professional single-lens-reflex quality at a price any cub photographer can afford. In our tests, images shot at up to ISO 1600 were as blemish-free in low light as those produced by more-expensive SLRs. Color fidelity was excellent, too, except photos became reddish in very dark environments. And for beginners with a Spidey sensibility, the image sensor actually moves to counteract camera shake, making image-stabilizing lenses a thing of the past."
