www.dpreview.com likes the D70 and Canon Rebels better.   In  their 
comparison with the Canon they say:
"The biggest difference is in  sharpness and detail, the EOS 300D image 
appears much sharper and with  better fine detail, we can clearly see 
elements which are difficult to  make out in the *ist DS image."
 


Well, you know,  when the clothes are all washed, Dpreview is just  a guy 
with an opinion, and access to all the cameras in the world.    I found the 
size 
and shape and handling of the Pentax feels lots better, and I  can use my 
quirky m42 glass with it.  But then, I'm just a guy with an  opinion too.

I think when Pentax  brought out the *istDs with  bigger mps, l;cd and
brighter viewfinder, for less bucks many camera stores  quietly  shipped 
their stocks
if *istD cameras back to the  distributor.

Everyone, (including me) that I know who has this cool  little camera loves
it.  With a 28 prime on it, set to Aperture  Preferred, my shooting  style is
very much like with my M6 and a  35mm.  The cameras have  similar size and 
weig
ht, and a  BRIGHT  finder.
