It's interesting but you get both views from various reviews.  I've seen 
reviews that will flat out say that the Pentax D series cameras have 
lower noise characteristics than Canons and others that talk about how 
noisy Pentax DSLR are at high ISO.  The only Canons I've seen high ISO 
output from were D20s and my brother's digital Rebel, (don't even ask).  
The D20 output is extremely clean but don't seem noticably cleaner than 
my D and DS at any particular ISO.  I don't think my brother has 
actually taken his DigiReb, beyond ISO 100 and uses the built in flash 
for most inside shots, and to think he never even had a flash for his 
Minolta SRT 101.
