Canon Pentax Sony
are brands such as Olympus and Pentax as good as Canon and Sony camera wise?
im getting a camera for Christmas this year and I am looking at all cameras of all makes between $ 500 - $ 700.everyone known as Canon and Nikon SLR popular brand, but lately I've been looking at the Sony Alpha, Olympus and models.so given the price range, what brand / model would you suggest I get?
Given that the Pentax Kx won entry-level DSLR the http://www.tipa.com/english/award-details.php?iId=1768&sAward=Best+DSLR+Entry+Level year and the recent introduction of Pentax K-5 is the highest ranking of APC-S DSLR DxOMark Classification (even higher than some of fullframe DSLR) http://www.dxomark.com/index.php/en/Camera- Sensor / Sensor-rankings I would say that Pentax cameras built pretty good. Pentax has been in business since 1957, building the first true SLR. Its quality has been recognized on numerous occasions. http://cheapdslrprofessional.blogspot.com/
