You need to compare things with similar accessories.</p> If you use SDM lenses on the Pentax, it will focus just about as fast as a Nikon or Canon camera.

(I'll wait for another K30D or K40D) :)</p> Pentax K20D’s High Resolution Quality Image and versatile White Balancing options, Time Lapse Intervalometer PLUS the AF adjustment for different lenses IMHO are the best selling point of the new K20D, I dont see the need for a faster FPS for ive never seen a bride running in 100 meter dash nor a portrait shot on the move But the pentax k20d 21-FPS at 1.6mp is fun to use

I'll be buying a Pentax K20d as soon as the price drops below $1000.</p> PS: If I had to have 6 fps and better AF in low light than the Pentax K20D, The Nikon D300 would be a much better choice than the Canon 40D any day.

It 14bit A/C is so great then you must really love the 22bit A/D used in the K10D. Don't put so much emphasis on numbers game. 12 clean bits is better than 14 noisey bits anyday. I work in signal processing and the last few bits don't buy you anything. You must be looking at different preview tests than I am, at high ISO the K20D (iso 1600) the fact is the worst Camera in the class is the Canon not the Pentax, its as good as the Nikon D300 and with more Megapixels can be cleaned up to a higer resolution if needed.</p> <p>http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/pentax-news-rumors/20289-k20d-noise-comparison-against-a700-40d-d300-d3.html</p> <p>On FPS and AF, yes the Canon is better, if you need that then its a good choice. If you need to bash other brands to feel good about your Canon purchase then you need help.</p> So you’ve tested both side by side under the same conditions?

On FPS and AF, yes the Canon is better, if you need that then its a good choice. If you need to bash other brands to feel good about your Canon purchase then you need help.

The Canon 40D also has a much faster auto focus system and blows the K20D away in low light capabilities with its lack of digital noise at higher ISO's. Add to that the fact that the Pentax K20D can only shoot at a snail like 3 FPS versus the Canon 40D's 6.5 FPS, and you have more than enough reasons to dump Pentax and stick with Canon!</p> The Pent ex KID may have more megapixels than my new Canon D but it is still only at 12bit A/D conversion next to the Canon’s 14bit.
