Yay!!! I am now the proud owner of the Pentax *ist Ds SLR camera. This is , while not the *first* shot I took with it, close to the first shot, and is the first shot I really spent any time to set up a bit. Woody here is giving the one finger salute to the departing Fuji s7000 (which is for sale, if you want it), and welcoming in a new era.
I have four lenses for this puppy already.. plus an external flash, and a whack of filters.. (no polarizer though, sadly).. and am ready to have some FUN FUN FUN!!!
My lenses:
SMC Pentax-A 28mm f/2.8 MF prime
SMC Pentax-A 50mm f/1.7 MF prime
Sigma 70-300mm APO f/4-5.4 Super Macro II AF
SMC Pentax-DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens
Look out world :)
By the way...
Here's a shot of it.

Congrats Glen!
Need to have a talk with Woody too.
That s7000 dropped 2 ribbons on your page.
(It's getting harder & harder to compete with all the new  s on this site anymore) |

Hehehehe... welcome to the istDS club. Yes, it may have possibly the worst and most inexplicable name ever, but its a great little camera.
Try not to bump all of my shots of the istDS page too quickly won't you :P!

Congrats on sticking out the saving! I'm always a bit weak for that, and last time round gave into the demons of finance. :-)
Enjoy...
