Thanks to all who responded to my recent DSLR question on behalf of my
daughter.  I got good information from many of you on both brands and passed
along the information to my daughter.  She finally made her choice ...
yesterday she bought a Pentax *istDL.  Shows how much our voices count. ;-)

The truth is she already had some legacy lenses in K-mount and liked the
size, weight, larger, brighter finder, and huge LCD screen, and also the way
the camera handled in her hands.  After she got home she took this
self-portrait with her new toy, so I thought I'd share:

Comments welcome.
