Doug, i am looking at upgrading from the k10d leisurely sometime this year (given that the k-7 may take upwards of six months to hit our shores, if at all) so i am looking forward to feedback on the list, and from people who have used it. (two main reasons i am looking to upgrade are that: 1) the k10d feels a little too big for my hands and i definitely preferred something like the *ist DS; and 2) the k10d's dicey metering with the pre-A series lenses). (did you at all try any of the pre-A lenses with the k-7 and if so, your impressions?) but, like others may be, i got the impression that you were only allowed to use it at GFM and anyway it would have had a pre-release firmware. there were even news reports as recently as two, three weeks backs that even the sensor in the production units will be a different one.... now that k-7s are out in the market there may be there will be more discussion about it... regards, subash -- 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.
