Of course it's not "about the brand." I'm grateful to the brand for what the equipment has allowed me to produce. I'd feel the same way, of course, about any brand I might have chosen. Once an inventory of a brand's lenses is assembled, it will obviously influence your camera choice for a some future period. I consider Pentax capable and extremely competitive from both a performance and a price standpoint. I'm certain I'd feel exactly the same about any brand I might have chosen. Jack

Stop thinking (like me) that because you've been mostly or 100% Pentax, that you're confined to a brand. That's not true! Why do you like photography? Is it because you like to see things? Is it because you like to share things? Is that true or not? In that case, stop thinking that YOUR current BRAND must be PENTAX. Your 'investment' in the brand is temporal. Regardless of brand, the excellent image you capture and share is by far the most important thing you will produce! Photography is not about brand name. I write this because I believe, really believe, that Pentax is a dead brand. Be honest with yourselves. I think Pentax has been, for the last 20 years, the bargain brand. That's why I joined . ,,, 1990.. 2012... It's not about brand.
