These days the biggest difference in performance between brands is when you buy 
the body.  The K-x has high ISO performance that exceeds flagship models of 
just a few years ago. In a few years, iPhones will have performance that 
exceeds that.

I did a fair amount of shooting last weekend with the k-mount 135/2.5.  I don't 
think that it's quite as sharp as the 135/3.5 but that extra stop really helps.

You can pick the Pentax 135s up on fleabay for about $70.
