They're all around 10mpx, and the Canon seems to be the cheapest. The advantage of the Pentax are that it has vibration reduction built into the body, and it's backwardly compatible with old Pentax film camera lenses. They all come as a body only, or bundled with a "kit" lens, which is generally an 18-55mm. zoom. They have similar specs. They all feel a bit different, but should produce excellent photos, so the best bet would to go to a store (? Carsand Mosher, or Camera Corner in New Minas) and play with all 3. Also, read the reviews on dpReview.com.
