Whilst I applaud Samsung for their brave step into the DSLR world, I suspect that at least the older photographer who cut his/her teeth with one of the well known brand cameras, he/she may have a hangup about the word Samsung hanging from their neck. Having said that, this camera really does give a a top notch performance and younger phots will be less inclined to put any stigmatism on its name. Pentax now need to equal this performance with a similar price. Peter
