Out of interest, what are the features in question that the mid-range
Canons and Nikons have over the Pentax DSLRs?

The only one I'm aware of is the (much) larger buffer in the D70, D50
and 350D/XT and the generally better write speeds. AF is essentially on
par (Nikon's with AF-S and Canon's with proper ring-type USM may be
faster in some situations, but the SAFOX VIII sensor has better coverage
and more cross-type sensors than the competition. Neither the 350D or
the D70 are AF speed-demons).
