Or Mercedes vs. Volkswagen. I'm not saying which car is to be copmpared to which camera brand. But in my country 85% of all taxies (professional cars) are from Mercedes Benz.

Not sure about > that, but I think it could well be. Wouldn't be surprised. (Canon owner.) Last I heard, Canon currently sells more lens designs than anybody else. Many of them, of course, are out of reach of most folks. Over the years, Pentax may well have put out more, and the interoperability across generations has only recently been compromised. > Each system has advantages/disadvantages. Yep. Even without going into camera differences. Nikon, for example, doesn't make a 24/2 AF or a 400/5.6 AF like Pentax does. Pentax doesn't make a small 85 any more, or a 105. DJE
