PENTAX takes entry-level SLR users to the next level with the new K100D Super Digital SLR.  Adding a Dust Removal system to help keep the CCD surface dust-free and full compatibility with SDM lenses, PENTAX has upgraded an already fully-featured set to bring you a technologically advanced SLR at a very affordable price.  Compatible with any PENTAX lens ever produced* and featuring Shake Reduction, the affordable PENTAX K100D Super offers a large 2.5 inch LCD monitor with 210,000 pixel resolution and a friendly Mode Dial featuring Auto Picture and Picture modes as well as new Scene modes for even simpler photography. The 6.1 megapixel APS-C size CCD, 11-point auto focus mechanism, and sophisticated 16 segment multi-pattern metering delivers outstanding image reproduction, while the bright, high-precision Penta mirror viewfinder features a 96% field of view and 0.85X magnification. All these features and more combine in a compact design with a high-rigidity stainless-steel chassis that is built to last.
