Never mind... :D

Any thoughts on the Sony A35? Had a try of the A35 in Jessops today, and in between the lovely sales girl trying to sell me camera bags, SD cards, serving packages etc. also had a try of a Canon 1100D & Nikon D3100. Of the Nikon & Canon I preferred the Canon, felt nice despite it supposedly...

Yeah I'd heard about Pentax brand changing hands recently - surely from a business point of view it would be unwise to ditch to SLR market? Perhaps they're doing what Sony did with Minolta a few years ago?
