Leon, Coming from a 7 MP / electronic viewfinder camera his choice is logical. These kind of users are not going to choose a lower MP camera based on bigger/clearer viewfinder and better build. Canon knows where to aim with its rebels. Pentax doesn't stand a chance outside its users base. It better listen to them. Servus, Alin
