I shoot with Pentax and Nikon DSLRs. They give good results and feel good in my hands. There two brands are similar in many ways. Each has it's qualities for different applications. I'm blessed to be able to have both. If I could only have one, either would serve well.
When I teach, I always use the Pentax. Most of the students have Nikons or Canons and I prefer not to show a preference for either. I read a lot of their instruction manuals to help them find certain features and I get to handle a lot of camera brands and camera models. In the end, It's likely that I could make do with almost any of the major brands. There isn't really that much difference among them. Once the photo leaves the camera and makes a pass through Lightroom or Photoshop it would be difficult or impossible for most anyone to tell what camera was used. We split a lot of hairs here because that is a part of our hobby that we enjoy. And, the last time I looked in a mirror I don't have that many left that I can afford to keep splitting them. Enjoy whatever equipment you like and get out there and take some pictures.
