I have been shooting Pentax for over a year now and have been asked the why Pentax question (or similar) a handful of times and at first I would engage in a friendly debate as to why I thought Pentax was the best value in DSLRs but now I just basically say because I think it's the best camera for the money and state that it's my opinion and if the person tries to keep going I end the conversation. I've come to the conclusion that there is no convincing Canon and Nikon users so why bother. If someone wants to have a friendly conversation about photography then I'm all for it but if they look down on Pentax, who cares, you'll never see that person again.

We are but who really cares. I have only been asked "why Pentax" once (but i've only had a Pentax for about 5 months), to which I replied, "Because I like it". At first the Nikon shooter was very nice, he came up to me and said, "I notice you had a nice camera" and started a casual conversation. That lasted about 45 seconds then he was trying to tell me this, tell me that, Nikon is better, you should have gotten a Canon, etc..... After only about 5 seconds of that I told the gentleman to "Please stop right there and please stop talking to me, I do not know you, I do not care about what you have to say. You started off nice enough but turned into something I do not wish to waste my time on. Have a nice day with your Nikon and I'll have one with my Pentax", and never heard from the guy again.
Canikons are like street priests. They speak like canikons are the holy gospel and try to push their religon upon the world. I do believe there is free will amongst the free and I tend to tell every canikon that I am entitled to what makes me happy and do not need to justify my SUPERIOR (haha) Pentax to you.
