There are exceptions. I'm not entirely new, but haven't owned a Pentax
since my ME was stolen years ago. My main reason for preferring
Pentax over other brands is the range of good used lenses available.

Nobody else is even close; 4/3 can take more lenses using adapters
but does not give stop-down metering. An M8 or RD-1 takes lots of
lenses, but are not priced well.

I'm an amateur on a budget. Being able to pick up lenses I'd like to
have but will not use often, for me anything longer than 100 or any
fisheye, is a great attraction to a system.
