Doug, I think it was more the typical drop off in discussion when a camera is in between announcement and availability. Unless one follows the other shortly (like the 2 week gap for the Oly E-P1) I've typically seen discussion drop off for even the most hotly anticipated cameras until they start trickling into stores. I for one am rather interested in your take on the K-7 even though I'm very unlikely to buy one anytime soon. I agree that it looks like a major step up for Pentax and am rather interested in how well it works. -- M.
