In the wake of Pentax's new *ist DL2 6.1 megapixel DSLR camera, it looks the company is giving us a nice break on its fabulous *ist DL digital SLR kit. At $599.95, down from $799.95, the 6 megapixel camera is one of the lowest price of its kind, competing with Nikon s D50, Konica Minolta s Maxxum 5D and Canon s initial EOS Digital Rebel. It will come with a 8-55 DA lens as well as a $100 rebate on select SLR lenses through the end of March. Not bad Pentax, thanks for the help.
