Re: lowest price yet for Pentax K20D

I'm up to 7 DSLRs in less than 2 years
This is a well known problem for old women. My mother-in-law hoarded all sorts of things, including cats.

What good does it do to have a bunch of dSLRs? You can only use 2 at a time (one for each hand/eye pair).
Actually I do use all of them regularly.

I bring a pentax k10d with macro lens to work every day for when the spiders/beetles/assorted creepy crawlies show up,

a pentax k100d w/ telephoto to work for whenever stuff happens in the pond out back or to have with me in the car for general photo ops that appear on the road

a pentax k10d with a bigma lens for when I go to sunny & scenic destinations

a canon rebel XTi (400D) on a tripod facing my back yard which I keep a tamron 400mm lens on for backyard wildlife

a canon original rebel 300D that I had loaned out to a friend, I need to find a use for it since it was just returned a couple days ago

a nikon d100 that I keep a 50mm f/1.8 that I have been using when I walk around my neghborhood lately

and a nikon d50 that I have been playing around with that has an 18-70 fun walk-around lens.

(The two nikons were just acquired for a couple hundred bucks for the pair, so I am still not as used to them)

Kind of destroys the whole reason for having portable bodies with interchangeable lenses, doesn't it?

Not when you consider that each body's sensor has different characteristics. (Except for my two k10ds)

My 100d is better for low light, my 10ds are better for general walkaround and telephoto, my canon xti is better for sky or long exposure shots, my nikons are better for landscapes...
