Interesting. But I think the comparison of the cat shots is unfair.
You were much closer to the cat with the Pentax, which in my
experience makes it harder to get balanced flash.
Over all, however, I must agree that in this test and historically,
the Nikon flash (and the firmware that control it) wins the race.

Using the K10D and 77ltd and D200 and 18-70, both from the same point,
same settings.
Af 360 on K10D and sb800 on D200.
Huge difference in adding light to shadows,,as seen in the couch
shots, and the shots of Boo in direct sun.
K10D way overexposed in the high lights, D200 opens up the shadows,
with no blow outs.
The D200 is winning me over with the SB800.
