Why not just use the Pentax K10D if you really want image stabilization? That also has the added bonus of weather resistance, so if it starts to rain on the brides day at least you can sanp a pic of her crying.
That's a good point, but I was already invested in lenses and Minolta 5D body (the Alpha predecessor) before the Pentax came out with the 10D. Otherwise, I might have leaned that way. The Sony was a good progression for me. And, thankfully, I haven't had to shoot much in the rain. But, the Pentax is sweet, no doubt.
