Hmm. I did what I did because I enjoy the old Pentax lenses and the quality is first rate. Looking back, I switched away from Pentax because the *ist D was still over a year away and I did not want to wait, and because I believed an 'upgrade path' to a high end DSLR was not going to be forthcoming. Since the *ist D has been out, I have felt no regret. If I had waited for the *ist D I would have been disappointed and switched right away. My Pentax allegiance still remains, but to a company that I knew in the 70s and 80s. You pays yer money, you takes yer choice. Having said that, I would definitely consider an *ist Ds and a wide prime for the pocket! Way cool.
