First off I want to welcome you to the forums.
Secondly, I think alot of people here can related to the appeal of being part of a niche product.
And though Pentax may not be the most popular shelf product, I think its one of those that is highly regarded(even if they don't admit it) by those big brand owners.
I've owner alot of gear over the years, and the K-5 has become one of the my most prized camera to date. In fact, if Pentax vanished off the face of the earth tomorrow, I think I'd buy two more K-5's just to be sure I can keep shooting for years to come.
