[FONT=Times New Roman]check out a review by Camera Labs here: http://www.cameralabs.com/reviews/Pentax_K200D/[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman]from Camera Labs: "The Pentax K200D is an affordable 10 Megapixel DSLR with built-in Shake Reduction that provides stabilisation facilities with any lens you attach. Announced alongside the K20D in January 2008, the K200D may be over-shadowed by the feature-packed 14 Megapixel flagship model, but it boasts an unprecedented degree of strength and weather-proofing for a body of its class. The K200D may be priced at a similar level to models like the Nikon D60, Olympus E-520 and Sony Alpha A300, but is weather-resistant with 60 environmental seals. That’s something you’d normally only find on pricier semi-pro models. Beyond tougher build, the K200D also sports a number of advanced features. There’s an upper LCD information screen, support for both Pentax’s own PEF and Adobe’s DNG Raw formats, along with optional in-camera RAW processing and even a dedicated RAW button on the side."[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman]The camera: In great condition. I love the pictures this camera takes, and I love that it operates on 4XAA batteries; I'm never caught scrambling for power or worried about charging my batteries. [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman]The lenses: Both lenses are in excellent condition as well. No dust or fungus, or any other issues. Both lenses include front and rear caps and hoods. I have one Tiffen UV Protector/filter that fits both lenses. Both the rear lcd and upper lcd are free of cracks and scratches. The rear lcd has a GGS DC LCD Screen Protector which is made of optical quality glass, not plastic, and offers six layers of protection (search it on amazon, it's pretty f'n cool. I have these suckers on the lcd screens of all my cameras). [/FONT]


[FONT=Times New Roman]With one purchase you could have a DSLR / dslr camera that covers all your needs: indoor school activities like volleyball, plays, award ceremonies, and family reunions and get-togethers, as well as outdoor activities like softball and hiking and camping. [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman]All original Pentax strap, software, cables, and manuals are included. Also, I'll include David Busch's Pentax K200D user guide, a 320 page user's manual written specifically for the K200D, a great, handy resource. [/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman]I'm only selling this package because I upgraded to the Pentax K-7 (tax write-off for business). This K200D was my back-up, but my wife just bought me a K-x for my birthday. So I'm passing this on at a great price: $485.00. Willing to ship within continental United States, will not ship internationally. [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman]$485 for this camera is an awesome price. Look around and compare. You won't be disappointed.[/FONT]

Bump for price drop: $550 shipped to your door.

Telepathic,

I am definitely in the market for a new camera, and although I prefer to buy from a dealer I would definitely consider your offer if the camera is still available. Let me know. I have been checking out a lot of different retailers online and have been impressed with some of the reviews I have been reading. Do you guys ever peek at Angie's List to see reviews?
