Is Pentax k-x better than Nikon D5000 or Canon T1i?

I know is not out yet, but the specs look very good better than its rival in similar price range.

echnical Details
12.4-megapixel CMOS sensor with Pentax Shake Reduction; HDR image capture
Kit includes 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL and 55-300mm f/4-5.8 ED lenses
Capture widescreen HD 720p video at 24fps; 2.7-inch LCD with autofocus and Face Detection Live View
4.7fps capture rate with 1/6000 sec max shutter speed; 11-point wide-angle autofocus

Also with 2 kits lens 18-55mm and 55-300mm for only $849.95 in full retail price sound like a great deal for first time dslr user, also since Pentax K-7 receive very high regard review, you think also make this product good?


I would think the T1i is better, the K-X and the D5000 can only go up to 720p, where the T1i can go up to 1080p (full HD)

Anyone have experience with Pentax support?

Just received a Pentax K-X with an 18-55mm and 55-300mm lens set from Amazon. Emailed Pentax web forum because small areas on the 18-55mm lens were missing some lens coating. It said they take up to 3 business days to respond. At first didn't notice any impact on the pictures, but on darker pictures and videos they became apparent as darker spots. Has anyone have any experience with Pentax returns/exchange? Or should I try contacting Amazon before the 30 day return period?


If you just bought it from Amazon then returning it to them may a better way to deal with it.

I went and looked at the Pentax website and below listed their support page and on this page you will find this contact info:

PENTAX Customer Care
Toll Free: (800) 877-0155
Phone:(303) 799-8000

Also in the upper right corner of that page, go to the support buttons for option and it has a "Live Chat" option also.

Hope this helps.
