Short version: there's a *lot* more to photography than high ISO performance. Suggestion: download the user manual PDF for both cameras and compare them. There are things in a K20D class body (and K-7, K-5) that K-x (K-r) owners would boggle at. Many/most of these things don't matter one jot to people who don't make a living from their camera, or don't care to sync external flashes, or don't care to colour calibrate their workflow end-to-end, etc. There's a lot in a semi-pro camera body like this. After owning a K20D for over three years, I've almost tried all the features in it. It's still not holding me back. -- -bmw -- 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.
