That's not a big difference. But the big plus for me with the K7 has been the exposure accuracy. No comparison between that camera and the 20 in regards to nailing the exposure. The Kx doesn't have the same metering system as the K20. It's considerably less sophisticated in that regard. That would be the deal breaker for me. Plus, I think it's even smaller. The K7 is borderline in that regard for me, even with the battery grip installed. I need mass for handholding. As far as low light is concerned, I've found the K7 to be quite adequate at 3200 with accurate exposure, and that's all I need. My commercial work is never low light. I do shoot lowlight snaps of Grace and pics for grins, but those aren't critical.
