Hi,
No, 'cause I still use film. There are still no Pentax digital body that
fully fulfills my requirements of quality.

Hi,
there's a BIG difference - Pentax film bodies are more or less
technically perfect, there's actually nothing missing, both from quality
and handling. I am very satisfied with my Z-1p.
Digitals are the whole different story - quality of current 6MPix chip
used in Pentaxes do not satisfy me.
Before I got the DA12-24, pretty much it was certainly the DA16-45, but
now the DA12-24 hardly ever leaves the camera.

In what ways do you find the D200 superior to the Pentax cameras? I'd be
interested in your comments about weight, size, ergonomics, as well as any
other thoughts you may have.
Thanks!

Exactly.
The Optio S series is pretty damned small; fits in a can of Altoids
and all. Much smaller would present ergonomic problems
I presume you meant the DA16-45/4.
For me, it's a trade-off between the FA20-35/4 and FA35/2 for most
used lens, with near equal time given to the FA50/1.4 right after
that. All with the DS body.

MF lens compatibility (Even matrix meters with AI lenses, no stop-down

weakness of the D100, D70(s) and D50 and Nikon has fixed it in spades

All FA lenses are supposed to be discontinued to be replaced with D-Fa
or DA equivalents. Soon is a matter of definition.
