Paul, Like you, I sold a K10d before the K7 came out (after seeing the K7 @ GFM). I've kept the K20d but it doesn't get much usage. I like the K7 much better. Along with your comments, I'd mention speed and battery life. I had the frame rate turned up to high and returned it to low yesterday. High is so fast, I found myself taking double shots - unintentionally! It's that much of a change from the K10 and K20d. Battery life is a blessing, especially without a grip. And it runs out of juice gracefully, giving some notice on the battery indicator. This pretty much eliminates my need for a battery grip. Filling a 16meg card with Raw files is no problem (until you have to sort them), Regards, Bob S.
