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.
