Welcome to the forum. I bought Pentax two years ago because it was the cheapest - and then the lens prices shot up!! Still a happy bunny though (and keep it quiet, but the Samsung finished 10 & 20's are better!!)

I like the idea of having such an extensive accessory list that Pentax Users have. I had been using Olympus/Panasonic Four Thirds but have slowly moved away and chosen, essentially, Pentax even though I bought Samsung.
I'm not a Photographer, just a hobbyist. What drew me to Pentax was simply a matter of elimination.
Panasonic Four Thirds - Limited accessories, basically a dead system.
Olympus Four Thirds - Sensor Size.
Nikon - My brothers got one
Canon - Friends got one
Sony - nah!
Pentax!
Doesn't seem to be favourable just choosing Pentax this way but that's pretty much how it happened.
So what do I like about the GX-10/K10d.
LCD Top Panel
Twin Dials
Larger Sensor thus brighter viewfinder for manual focus
Stacks of Lenses
I know it may have been an accident that I got into Pentax but I'm happy I did.
