Paul have you been taking spelling lessons from Brooks?

I haven't put the K7 to that severe a test, but I noticed when
shooting Grace's t-ball game that I could keep focus on a runner for a
series of shots. Very nide.

On paper the K20D will do about 2.5 frames per second.
On paper the K-7 is about twice as fast.
Today I played around with both cameras in a park, tracking hooded
gulls as they flew past, and snapping away with the DA*300/4 mounted.
IOW, BiF. :-)
I was stunned by the difference. The K-7 locked focus on the gull and
kept it there for whole series at a time, while the K20D struggled to
reestablish focus between every shot. As a result, about one in four
was in focus with the K20D. With the K-7, the ratio was 17 out of 20.
And needless to say, the practical difference in actual FPS is far
more than the nominal doubling. My gut feeling says today's
performance was about 3x faster for the K-7.
Can't wait to repeat the test with the FA*600/4.
