Just because a tog owns a Nikon or Canon doesn't automatically make him a spray & pray shooter.

The same can be said for a K5 shooter with little experience.

Nikon's flash system is simply way ahead and has been well proven in the field.

For some of us we need a dslr that performs stellar in all areas not just in some.

One thing that I've found REALLY helps on my K20d in low light is to use the spot beam of my Metz 58. It boosts my keeper rate by 70~80% Of course in a wedding situation it won't do to have a big red grid flashing across the bride's face as she's at the altar, but remember the old photojournalist's motto, "f/8, and be there". I would recommend scouting the location first and taking some measurements, like "ok, it's 30 feet from the altar to the back of the pews, with my 50-135 at the telephoto end at f/8 that gives me about a 5 foot safety net."

But generally speaking, yeah, I agree the accuracy need improvement. Speed would be nice to have, but the lenses only focus so fast anyway. If it would just hunt less, and be a little more discerning, I'd be a happy guy. I think they need to increases the resolution of the AF sensor, and maybe use apochromatic lenses since different wavelengths have different focusing points.
