Just unboxed our new Pentax K-x camera. Apart from being surprised how well it does in low light videos, here is a video of it panning across my keyboard from side to side. The edges of the keyboard are normally vertical. In this video they are a little diagonal. Needless to say, it's not a huge problem, and for the stuff we'll be using the camera for, it's fine. You have to constantly filming stuff with vertical lines for it to start to be very noticeable. 8/10 video from me.

Check out dpreview.com's review of the Pentax K-x for an in-depth look at why this camera is good value.

On a side note, my Sigma 70 - 300mm lens that I got with the camera (not bundled in a kit, but separately), doesn't want to auto-focus, and the camera won't even take photos with it attached?? Thoughts?
