It's the same camera. The price should be the same, or at most 25GBP difference. People would buy the Pentax rather than the Samsung on the name and reputation alone. Now they will buy the Samsung on the price alone.
All hypothetical for me as there is no sign of the Samsung in Holland.

Maybe Chirpy should have a look over the weekend - help him pass the time until he gets the camera

Maybe reading the handbook will help some of us decide whether to fork out a small fortune on the K20D.
You can download it in pdf from http://www.pentax.de/downloads/photo/de/Pentax%20K20D/K20%20D%20Operating%20Manual.pdf
When I have an hour or two to spare I may have alook at it

Photshop Elements doesn't need any other program to burn CDs. It seems strange to me that PS does.
My computer came with a program, and I acquired Nero along the way.
Have you checked the CDs that came with the computer - there is often one full of mostly useless utilities, but it may contain a cd burning program.

No harm in looking Martin!

The ridiculous part of it all is that the cameras come into Rotterdam and are distributed through Europe from there. Because we have to rely on Beukelaar the cameras go first to Belgium and then back to the Netherlands.
Rabbitmountain will post it to you if you are desperate enough or maybe you could spend a nice day out in the east of the land? Lots of photo ops there But as I said still no idea when they will actually be available.

No word on the Samsung here at all.

hmm must resist... (hand reaching for wallet...) I wonder what the price will be towards the summer... 995 for the body only is a very nice price.

I was surprised by the K'berg price - they are not normally the cheapest, but seem to be at the moment. I saw somewhere, and I don't know if it is true, that they are not due for distribution in the Netherlands until week 13 .

Pass the time reading the handbook - I've posted a link to the download in another topic.

They are quoting €1099 in Germany for the body only, the same as K-E are asking. Goedkoopste.nu have it for 1019 they say. Of course we have no idea when it will be available in Holland
Be interested to hear what Pentax say to Chris.
