their photographs, but in stead of admitting it they stay around criticising
Pentax for not being what they wanted it to be .-)

If you are refering to me, you are wrong.  I have no regrets about my
decisions.  My experieince, ie, going out and shooting pictures as much as I
can, has improved my photography.  I got results I was proud of with film
and the LXen, MXen, etc. I got results I was proud of with the *ist D and I
get results I'm proud of with the 20D.  Why are some of my 20D pictures
better than my *ist D pictures which were better than with film?  It aint
the camera or the media; it's me.

And BTW, I'm going to hang around on this list because I still own Pentax
cameras and lenses (not that it's a neccesity; Graywolf's FAQ don't mention
it).  And I'll voice my opinion WRT new DSLR releases because it's my
god-given right to have an opinion of a company I had/have so much respect
for.  When they make stupid decisions (IMO) I'm going to tell it how I feel
about it.
