Dave, the metering of the K-7 is effing amazing. Doug had some shots that we couldn't believe: Scenes that presented amazingly difficult tasks for metering were handled perfectly, with no blown highlights. No exposure compensation. Like you, I find I'm almost always using exposure compensation with my K10 and K20. When I get around to buying a K-7 it will be the metering more than anything else that finally makes my get out my credit card. Also, our seat-of-the-pants, totally unscientific impression is that dynamic range has been greatly extended with this new sensor. -- 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.
