Sorry, Phil. Yes, the K7 addresses almost everything from the K10D that bugged me. Specifically: 1. Unpredictable exposure (with or without flash) 2. Loud. That shutter. Wow. Loud. 3. Unpredictable autofocus (will it lock or not?). Too many missed shots as I had to flip to MF and focus it myself. This looks like that will be a thing of the past now. I'm already thinking that keeping it for the wife to use would almost be cruel. But that's what our budget allows for the moment and I'll get her a K-x somewhere down the line. I'll reiterate, though, that the image quality of the K10D did not leave me wanting. When you wrestle the exposure and focus to where you want 'em, the resulting images were/are top-notch. It was just the "user experience" handling the camera which would drive me batty way too often. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
