BUT!
The top-end camera is what people compare to. It is the one that shows your
capability. If Nikon and Canon did not have that top-end camera their low-end
sales would be much curtailed. As are Pentax's. Strangely car companies who
have a winning race team sell more cars than companies who do not, even though
the race cars are nothing like the ones you can buy. All along same same
cameras.
Having the cheapest low-end camera does nothing for your image. Before Canon
decided to try and whoo the PJ market with giveaways, they were considered a
second rate manufacturer even Pentax was rated higher. Unfortunately in sales
figures image is everything.

Hi!
It just occurred to me - Pentax is *actually* competing with Nikon and
Canon on "*istD and lower" market segment. It is probably where the most
money is w.r.t. DSLR sales...
Thumbs up, Pentax!
