Comments about Pentax Pentax K-x Digital SLR Green Camera Kit with Black 18-55mm DA-L Lens:

Because this camera is set up a bit differently than other brand DSLRs, it took a little while to get used to operating it. It's still very user-friendly. I've used it in Manual mode, Program mode; and I've tried out a few of the scene modes. The camera takes amazing quality pictures and it's extremely easy to use. It's size is also a pro.

The software that came with this camera is difficult for me to operate. For me, it came to a point where I decided it wasn't worth it to learn how to use it because it's really not that impressive. I've been using a popular RAW image editor instead and I've had amazing results!

At first I was hesitant to buy a DSLR in BRIGHT GREEN, but I'm so happy with the camera! The color makes it unique. I was worried that a funky color might look less professional (and more like a toy), but now I know that the camera stands on its own as a GREAT camera and that the color really doesn't matter because the pictures prove that it's a quality camera.

Overall, I definitely suggest this camera to anybody -- even professional photographers. It's a great little DSLR to have around; and you can use your lenses if you ever upgrade to the K-5, which seems like one of the best DSLRs on market.
