I'm not that familiar with the Canon line-up so this may not be a
valid comparison, but a couple of weeks ago I tried out one of my
students' Canon Rebel T1i (EOS 500D) and the low-light AF wasn't as
good as my K20D. (I'm not sure how old the Canon is or how much
cheaper than the K20D it may be.)
The Rebel is the bottom feeder in Canon's line. It would be most
embarassing for Pentax if the Rebel outperformed what was, up until
not long ago, the Pentax flagship camera.

Pentax aims it's Flagship at a being a solid middle of the roader, it's
not a 7D or a 1Dx or even a 5D but then Pentax top of the line doesn't
cost what a top level Canon or Nikon does either. I know that arguement
has already been dismissed, but it;s still relaxant. If you can't live
with that then you probably should invest in some other brand. Most
pro's don't need better than what Pentax offers, hell most Pro's don't
need more than a Digi Rebel, but I'd hate to have to use one.
