I've fooled around with quite a few DSLRs, and there's no doubt that autofocus is slicker on CaNikon. I stick with Pentax because I like the ergonomics better (the program mode with the two dials for shutter & aperture, and the little green button to get the camera's opinion while in manual) and the cool lenses. -T -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
