Mark, Again, remember price point. For your willingness to spend the money to get a 1DS (that's correct isn't it?) Canon is a far better line for you to be in. Even though Pal disagrees with me, I think Pentax caters to Pros in the medium format market. Their 35mm offerings are really geared towards amateurs and hobbyists. Want to venture a guess on how much that new Canon is going to cost?
