roti_prata said:nikon and cannon are so popular because of their extensive range of lenses(pro and consumer)
with KM ur best bet would be sigma lenses. check out this site: www.sigma4less.com

Take the same pic using a pro grade glass, zoom in 100% and you'll start seeing differences, judging images at 100% view resized doesn't show much. If you can handle the camera, any camera can produce the images just as well. Canon, Nikon, Sony etc.tokrot said:For those who doubt about KM5D and its kit lens maybe you guys should take a look at these pics all taken with Kits lens with mininal processing done with Sharpen only according to the threadstarters.

Now who says Minolta lens are lousy? :nono: I dun think so.. Optically, they are of higher optical quality and cheaper than the competitors. Nevertheless, the image quality of the above pictures produced look like taken from competitors' expensive Premium lenses. I myself was also surprised to know it was taken with cheapo kit and a $99 75-300 lens. The pictures said it all.
Not true, you have invested in a variety wide range of glasses available for the camera.alwayschampion said:Seriously, when you buy any minolta lens or 3rd party lens. You enjoy the anti-shake free shooting.
When you get Nikon D50, although you invest a little cheaper than KM5D, but when you get the anti-shake lens you need to pay alot.
