A great feature set for the price, pro-level customization, and excellent photo quality make the Pentax K10D a bargain DSLR. Technically, the 10-megapixel K10D is an ambitious camera, which combines 10.2 effective Megapixels with a host of advanced technologies - including the Pentax-original Shake Reduction (SR) system - to deliver high-quality digital SLR photography and responsive operations to advanced amateurs and experienced hobbyists.

The K10D also includes Dust Removal system to keep dust off the CCD surface, a Pentax-original exposure system for faithful reproduction of the photographer’s creative intentions, and a dependable dust-proof, water-resistant body construction.

The K10D review from CNET is now available, and here is a short sample of that review-

"If you’re looking for a first dSLR or a no-brainer kit, the Pentax K10D may be too much for you, as in too much power and too expensive. But if you want to buy into an inexpensive system with a really good amateur dSLR at its hub, the K10D hits the mark."
