Subject: [Leica] An unscientific comparison, Leica R8 and Pentax isDS

I'm just partial to Pentax. I've never had one fail on me, and I've never
had anything but excellent optics from them. If they had catered more to the
pros, they would have won them over. I've had three Nikons fail on me, but
never a Pentax despite having used the Pentax more often.

I'm partial to the Pentax 14mm material.
