Camera

The K2000 comes in several different kits. The f3.5-5.6 18-55mm kit lens is one of Pentax’s new DA L series budget lenses, which the company says uses the same optics as the older models but uses less expensive construction. The most novel kits includes the lens and AF200FG flash; other versions widely available include body only, a typical kit with the 18-55mm lens, and a dual-lens kit with the 18-55mm and 55-200mm lenses. The flash is naturally available separately as well. You can also get it in white directly from Pentax.

Though its has a compact, comfortable body which is smaller than all but the Olympus E-450, it’s also a bit heavier than its direct competitors. It has a nice, big grip to accommodate four AA-size batteries. Pentax doesn’t include a lot of connectors; under a cover on the left side is a proprietary video-out/PC connector and the right has an SD card slot. The camera has a pretty standard layout. The mode dial on top offers the usual handful of scene modes, with another slot that gives you access to more, plus PASM manual and semimanual exposure modes. The K2000 also has Pentax’s Sensitivity Priority mode, which allows you to select ISO sensitivity while shutter speed changes and aperture remains fixed; this is especially useful for homing in on appropriate settings for low-light shooting. A button near the mode dial works in conjunction with the back dial (dubbed the “e-dial”) for adjusting exposure compensation, or, in Manual mode, toggling the dial function between changing shutter speed and aperture.

The Help button next to it can be set for digital preview (an unsaved snapshot), Custom Image, digital filter, or a file format override. When used for Help, it provides a limited explanation for whatever buttons or menu items you select. On the camera back is the traditional four-way nav plus OK. As frequently found on a point and shoot, the buttons double as white balance, drive mode (high- and low-speed continuous, two self timers, and exposure bracketing of three shots in 1/3 or 1/2 stop increments up to 2 EV), ISO sensitivity, and flash. While the K2000 supports wireless flash, the AF-200FG that ships in the bundle doesn’t. A relatively tiny AF/AE lock button sits on the back right shoulder of the camera where it’s easy to overlook.

Waterproof Digital Cameras are the latest craze and you can totally understand why. When i purchased my Waterproof Digital Camera I had looked at several reviews to find the best rugged camera for me. Waterproof Digital Cameras allow you to shoot underwater to high depths and to also record in HD format. Their are times when you want to go to the beach with your digital camera but you are worried that they will get wet or dust inside of them that is why having a Waterproof Digital Camera is so Revolutionary.
No Longer will you have to plan your trips around your camera you can have the peace of mind that your Waterproof Digital Camera will stay intact and you can shoot some fantastic shots both on land and under the sea. I recently went on a cruise with my Waterproof Digital Camera where I travelled to Miami, Mexico, Grand Cayman, Jamaica & Haiti and it was my Best friend.
A Waterproof Digital Camera in the near future will no longer be a great concept or food for thought but a necessity. You now have the freedom to shoot whereever, whenever and whatever with your Waterproof Digital Camera.
