Fantastic little camera, the bundle with lenses is a great deal.

Great starter kit for your intro to interchangeable lens/DSLR cameras. Pentax Q10 has plenty of automatic settings to take the guess work out of it for the amateur, as well as settings allowing you varying degrees of manual control over the settings. Very intuitive, excellent menu interface. Easy to change lenses. Produces great quality pictures for such a tiny camera. You can literally put it in a jacket pocket with the 02 Standard lens and barely know it's there, and the 06 Telephoto lens is barely bigger but plenty of power.

User manual was in Japanese, but it was readily available online in pdf, so no real problem.

Kit came with all the wires, straps, battery and cables, no SD card with mine (maybe others will include them), but no worries because I had one and they're cheap enough if you need to buy.

You can buy nicer cameras, but you'll pay for them too. I'm convinced this is among the best you'll get for such a great price. Even if you buy the body and lenses separately, you might still come out ahead over other camera kits.

Battery life leaves a little to be desired, especially if you're fidgeting with the controls while getting acclimated to it. For all-day shoots, you'll want to pick up a few extra batteries. And a medium-sized carrying case will carry camera, lenses and accessories with room to spare, but you may want to wait until you get the camera in hand to see just how compact it really is.

What's not to love?

The best camera is the one you have with you. Admittedly my cell phone is always with me, but the Pentax Q10 is with me whenever I want to wear it in a small fanny pack. It's a little gem - hard not to like. And the best part is it can do so many things, like changing lenses, accepting via adapter MANY lenses of different makes, and it has the controls to let you manage your exposure, etc., just like advanced cameras. And you can cary around an entire system in a relatively small bag. Of course it doesn't takes pictures to match a $4000 DSLR, but those cameras don't match an $8000 medium format camera, which in turn don't match an 8x10 view camera.

The scale model in the pictures is about 3 inches long. The coin is a dime. Pics taken with the standard 02 zoom lens.

Good quality picture in small size.

Now, it's become my fav. camera because of light and raw.
If you find out street and DSLR-feature camera that can go with you everywhere, I recommend this.

Small camera, big results.

This camera system is unique- very small with interchangeable lenses. With adapters it can use almost any lens ever made, it works well with movie camera lenses. The menus are thorough but not fussy.

I should know, this is my fifth body!
