Well, yes. Picture quality is why I chose Pentax rather than Canon or Nikon in the first place. Contax would have been my second choice, but I couldn't afford the lenses. Most photographers, if they stopped to think about it, are in the enviable position of being able to choose a camera system based on what kind of pictures the lenses (and now sensors) make. Most photographers actually choose their systems based on a camera body's feature set, which may have absolutely nothing to do with what they will use the camera for. William Robb
