I'm really interested in why such subtleties seem to carry such weight. Firstly the differences seem really minimal to me and are noted by the reviewer as such. Secondly in both comparative cases I prefer the Pentax image, I see more accurate colour, less noise in the areas of low detail and less sharpening artifacts. The only thing that really bothers me is the stepping visible in the blow-up of the crayons. I'm not trying to stick-up for the Pentax I'm just calling it as I see it purely from an image quality perspective. In what image quality areas do you see the other cameras being superior to the *ist D?
