Twenty years ago, Pentax was a company with brand recognition as well.
They let things slide for too long, and now there is an entire 
generation of buyers who have never heard of them.
OTOH, if one is interested in cheap 3rd partly lenses instead of the 
ones supplied by the manufacturer, it really doesn't matter what brand 
of camera body you use.
