My plan was to wait for the K20 replacement before upgrading my K100. Last spring, when it became apparent that one wouldn't be out for quite a while, and meanwhile K20 prices plummetted, I caved in and got the K20. It addressed almost all of the shortcomings of the K100. As long as I'm not shooting autoexposure, p-ttl flash, or autofocusing action shots, the K20 works just fine for me. From what I've heard, the K-7 is better for both metering and autofocus than the K20. I'm not quite sure how much better, and until I get steady income again, I'm probably better off not knowing. > > > Chris > > > > -- > 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. -- The first step is learning to take great photos, the second step is learning to throw away ones that are merely good.
