Or Pentax Canada has no understanding of the concept of comparison shopping. As nice as the Pentax bodies are, who's going to pay $775 for a FA 35/2 or the same price for a 17-70, let alone $800 for an AF540FGZ. Right now Pentax is the unarguable value loser in Canada despite the fact that the body prices are finally where they belong. -- M.
