Yeah it's a fair comparison. Also a very loyal customer base as well for both. --- Gregory L.

Re: Pentax is the Macintosh Cameras
Of course, a sharp smart photographer like Bruce has to be ready for all contingencies. This entails buying every lens and accessory a manufacture makes and hauling it all along on every shoot. I mean, you never know what you _might_ need, right? I actually started attempting to do this with Pentax, realized I could not afford nor carry it all, and am seriously contemplating the purchase of the first 17-500mm lens that anyone cares to ship.
