Pros: Quality, great ergonomics, small size, great picture quality for a consumer camera, lens compatibility
Cons: Buffer limited with RAW shooting
Bottom Line: I give this a definite recommendation - I haven't felt the need to upgrade, and I'm definitely a demanding photographer. Eighteen months and going strong.

Pros: Compact; Lightweight; Bright/Large Viewfinder; Nice Color-Reproduction and RAW Image-Quality; Cheap Price; Clear Indications; User-friendly Operations.
Cons: Poor QC; Inaccurate/Slow AF; Inaccurate Metering; Battery Problem; Inferior-Quality JPEGs; Vigorous-Mirror; No Upgrade-Path; Poor-Services; Irresponsible-Pentax.
Bottom Line: Generally, it is still a good camera as long as you can get one without any QC problem by itself, otherwise.. (see my conclusion at the end of my review)

Pros: Excellent pictures, light weight.
Cons: Slower shot to shot time, slower auto-focus
Bottom Line: Speed was disappointing compared to Canon Rebel and Nikon D70. If the Pentax had been my only option I would have waited before buying. Picture quality was excellent.
