We like:
Results on a par with 10-megapixel competitors; 18-55mm lens included in price; 11-point autofocus system; warm, colour-rich images straight out of the camera; easy to use; reliable all-rounder
We don't like:
Bundled with non-rechargeable AA batteries; image noise at higher settings
CNET.co.uk judgement:
In many ways, the operation and performance of the Pentax K100D Super exceeds expectations, given both its price and 'mere' 6-megapixel resolution. For just £370, it represents one of the biggest dSLR bargains out there for anyone looking to make the trade up from a compact or swap from a film SLR

Plain styling and cluttered controls belie an intuitive user interface and lots of options

Inexplicable interface issues let down this disappointingly unsophisticated point-and-shoot
