Hey Bill,
Did your dealer have the battery pack? Based on your earlier comments, it
sounds like you have one. B&H isn't listing it yet, but I want one from
the get go if possible.
BTW, have you had a chance to try autofocus with SDM lenses. Looking
forward to your evaluation.
I have the grip, but no extra batteries yet. I have 3 on order.
The grip comes with 2 trays. One takes 6 x AA cells, the other holds the
dedicated battery and an extra card. Neither tray will hold the small remote
control.
I haven't done any timed tests of the SDM speed, but my impression is that
if it is faster than the K20, it isn't significantly so. Screw drive AF does
seem snappier.
I have to do some tile setting in the morning, but I am hoping to take
tomorrow afternoon to go on an expedition of photographic proportions and
give the 60-250 a workout, and I have a model shoot scheduled for tomorrow
evening. It's a TFP, so its a great opportunity to see what the K-7 does for
me in the studio, and I should be passingly familiar with it by the time I
get there.
More than likely it will be Wednesday before I get files processed. On
Tuesday, The Keepers of the Salt Mine want to teach me to drive a forklift,
so that I can move even more salt than I do now.
It's very hard work, made harder by the fact that there is no salt.
