Why ask only Rob. Ask all the photogs, that uses Canons or Kodak kameras with larger sensors! The anser is of cource better resolution with less limitations, caused by the lens resolutuin. Regards

It's much more expensive, both for the body and the lenses (note how much cheaper the DA macro lenses, for instance, are than the FA lenses). There are now good wide-angle options. All the evidence suggests, and has for some time, that Pentax will not in the near future, and probably never, produce a 24x36mm sensor in the K mount. If 24x36 is what your heart is set on, buy a Canon. And for those who say that the market has abandoned the Pentax 645, how did they ever manage to sell the first 645? There are still huge quantities of 645 lenses out there, and I for one will bet that as long as the price and performance are OK, the 645D will be snapped up.
