I've looked at both (I work in camera shop) and compared actual image quality - both capable of excellent quality, however the Pentax is the clear winner at higher iso's.

I think we'd go a long way more than most people, to be honest - although you wouldn't get the loan camera!And that's why I would never buy camera equipment from somewhere like Jessops. I can't imagine them going the extra mile.

PS: Welcome to the forum. We're a little miffed that Jessops staff don't seem to know much about cameras any more, which perhaps explains their otherwise inexplicable decision to stop selling Pentax DSLRs. Let's hope you're the first of a new breed.

Luckily for Jessops I do know about camera's, so feel free to come into our Taunton Store for a chat! They have just started to offer Pentax SLR's on-line again - however I'd already bought my K-5 elsewhere as I decided it was the best camera available. Pentax being removed from the range was probably a commercial one - read the press from a year or so ago for the clues....

I bought the viewfinder magnifier for my K-5, and it has definately improved the viewfinder (which I found a little darker than Canon/Nikon competition).

I work at Jessops, and am not aware of Pentax being back on the books! I'd be pleased to hear that they are, mind - I recently bought my K-5 from another dealer...........

Hello - I'm new to this forum and have joined as I've just bought the K-5. Only taken around 100 shots, but it looks really good - low light is fantastic.
