Wes do you still shoot with Pentax? Just curious. I have 3 DSLR's 2 Canon and one is a Pentax KX (entry level) - I shoot with all 3, but I enjoy shooting the Pentax the most. The photo quality really depend on the glass that you have attached and your eye for the shot, Pentax seems better for more artistic and composed shots. Canon (with the right glass) is better for action shots. I have a couple of good friends that shoot Nikon and I am impressed (jealous) with some of the shots they get.
