You’d think the biggest name in DSLR online buyer satisfaction would be someone like Nikon or Canon, but according to J.D. Power and Associates, it’s actually Pentax. J.D. Power and Associates released their 2012 DSLR Online Buyer Report a couple of days ago, and it was Pentax that took the crown, scoring 899 our of 1,000. The runners up, in case you’re interested, were Nikon with an 891 and Canon with an 888.

The study measured 5 factors: picture quality, durability and reliability, variety of features, ease of operation, and shutter speed/lag time through a social commerce network called PowerReviews, and Pentax did best in all features excepting picture quality, where #3 Canon actually reigned supreme. For all of the details be sure to check out the entire report.
