Pentax K200D: Compare prices

By Philip Ryan on 29/04/2008

More CR Kennedy reviews , RRP: AU$1119.00

The good:

  • Sensor-shift image stabilisation
  • Wireless flash control
  • Sensitivity-priority mode
  • Dust and water resistant

The bad:

  • Inaccurate, though still pleasing colours
  • Tends to underexpose images
  • No live view mode

The bottomline:

Pentax's K200D entry-level SLR gives a lot of bang for the buck and has better performance than last year's model. Despite low noise and pleasingly detailed images, technically inaccurate colours keep it from capturing the gold medal for image quality.
