If history is any indication, we probably won't see another top of the
line Pentax for 18 months or so. Another camera this year would
obviously put a damper on K7 sales. I'm sure Pentax is anxious to
cover their investment with K7 sales. I believe what's been said is
that full frame performance is possible in APS-C, and in a historical
sense that's true. I would think that the K7 outperforms some previous
generation full frame cameras. But realistically, advances in APS-C
will always be countered by full frame advances. Nevertheless, today's
best APS-C cameras deliver outstanding results that are more than
adequate for almost any application.

Thanks for the real life review.
There are some features, and specs, of the K-7 I'd like over my K20,
but I'm kind of glad I got the K20 when I did, because it'll be a
while before I can afford a K-7, and it doesn't seem to be a huge leap
in performance over the 20.
I do remember, however, some higher up at Pentax talking about
something with full frame levels of performance coming out this
year. I wonder what that'll be, and when.
Cheers!

The first step is learning to take great photos,
the second step is learning to throw away ones that are merely good.
