Tanya, See my answer to your other post. On my K10D, the advantage to shooting PEF is that the files are losslessly compressed, so that I can get 170-180 shots on a 2GB card; the DNGs aren't compressed.
I believe that the DNGs are compressed on the K7, though, so there is probably no advantage to either format.
