You are the one with buyers remorse. If you are too tight fisted to buy a D300 or a D3 you presumably bought the K20D because it was good value and now you are too insecure to judge a cameras qualities for yourself so you rely on "branding" or other peoples opinions.
You are the one who has an issue with your camera or with Pentax so why should those of us that are perfectly happy and made a quality NOT a cost decision give a toss what you think?
You haven't got a freaking clue about what you are talking about, so you just revert to the personal attacks typical of mindless fanboys. I probably own more Pentax glass than any 6 people on this forum combined, and yes, I am a little peeved that the best camera I can get to put them on is a K20.
Why should I be happy that I have to put the best glass in the world on a second rate camera?
Your standards are not my standards, obviously.
Have you never had the pleasure of using a camera capable of 9FPS, and appreciated the responsiveness of a machine of that caliber?
Don't bother answering that question, it was rhetorical.
Anyway, keep being happy that you get to play in the shallow end of the pool. Eventually, you may grow up and realize that there are a lot of opportunities you are missing because you think that a paddling pool is the best that there is.
