I see a lot more Pentax's around than Oly's, in fact i regularly see Pentax DSLR's of various vintages on the street. Sure they're in the big-box stores, but they don't seem to be selling much. The only thing less common is the last batch of low-end Sony's, but that's likely because their new body design causes hand cramps. -- M.
