    Queries from new pentax k-x owner

    Hi, I've gotten my pentax k-x from SLR revol along with a Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 lens. ;) Had some test shots with it, but I have some newbie questions here. I shoot in Aperture priority mode but the aperture displayed on the screen only starts with f/4.0 and above. Why is this so...

    DSLR recommendations?

    DSLR recommendations?

    Will check out pentax ;) Budget should be about 2k? It's flexible as long as I have enough for a entry level body and one f/2.8 lens and one wide angle lens. Of course, the less the better. :cool: If I don't buy from IT fairs, then I suppose I should reference to this list here? Will it...

    DSLR recommendations?

    Hi I am a casual user and I intend to get my first DSLR or EVF. I have no preference over APS-C or micro 4/3 and intend to upgrade from PnS since I cannot achieve the effects I want. I will like to create bokeh and wide angle shots. Currently I am looking at Canon EOS 500D. It seems to be a...
