All my lenses are of the compatible variety except one. Yet when
multiplying the focal lengths with the 1.5 factor I only get two
usable lenses, so digital looks like a more expensive proposition
than just body and accessories.
Add to this the relatively low resolution and loss of apertu

I expect to treat digital as a new format. When the time comes, I will by a DSLR from
whoever makes the one that fits my needs.
Right now I don't see myself buying a DSLR for a couple of years no matter what -- the
technology is still very immature. I have a digicam (Canon G2) for the time being
I can't speak for anyone else, but my belief is that 3rd Generation electronics
will be better than first. If I must live without aperture control on the lens
and must buy all new lenses, I'll go with experience, unless Pentax shows clear
superiority in ALL aspects of their product then I'll buy f

Think about what you wrote here for a minute: Aside from a couple moments Canon has
had Nikon sucking wind since 1897. What makes you think that Pentax's Ist* D class
camera will keep up with Canon's 10D class camera?

Most of my lenses are FA so there's no compatibility issue. From what I
can see, IS lenses are too expensive for what I do, so having those
available is no really an advantage. Assuming that the Ist*D is
comparable to the 10D, I can't see any good reason to switch. I do have
