I don't mind being called loyal to my brand, I think that's a good thing. But if that conclusion comes with a narrative that it's blind loyalty, then that is where I would take exception. I'm loyal because I like Pentax design, I always have. When I worked in photo retail and I would sell Pentax, I would always say the reason I like it is because IMHO their ergonomics are the best and very user friendly. If the customer didn't default to Canikon and gave me a chance to explain, I would use the camera to validate my opinion.
When I see a review video, I expect to see at least some impartiality, but I am missing that somewhat with Chris and Jordan. They are sometimes almost smug about their reviews of Pentax, and they always warn the viewer about how their comments will rile Pentax users. I consider that patronizing, and unprofessional.
If you're going to do a review, we expect you have your own views on the product, just don't rub our nose in it. Respect the individual, don't rank on the maverick.
Say folks, if any of you Pentax shooters are pros or advanced amatuers and are on Facebook, I invite you to join the Pentax Photojournalists/Professional Pentaxians page.

Merv:
Look at it this way; if camera sales fall to phones, and everyone like Canikon has to downsize to remain viable, Pentax is already there :)
