Thanks for your thoughts Dave.

I had read that images from Pentax DSLRs at high ISO are quite noisy.

I see from the review you directed me to (and another I have read on photoreview.com.au) that the white balance isnt too crash hot, and I also notice that on colour checker tests the colour from the K20D is further off the mark than the Km model. Not sure how important the true colour is.

As to what Frank wants to photograph - his response is 'general stuff'. Years ago (film days) he liked to capture people shots and nature, with the occasional dapple at macro as well (extension tubes etc). I think that he really wants an 'all rounder', which is difficult, just like selecting an 'all rounder' telescope I guess.

I dont think that at present he requires specialist lenses, but as we all know the more you dabble into a hobby the more specialised toys we like to have.

Thanks, Kerrie
