Congratulations now you can buy a new K-7.
Hah, not likely. Last year my work hours were cut from five days to
four days a week (8hr/day) for most of the year. This year, starting a
couple months ago, my hours were cut back again, only this time to THREE
days a week. I was fortunate to find some temp work this month for the
two days I have off each week, but what I really want and need is a
totally new job. Problem is, no one is hiring around here (SF East
Bay), I'm stuck with a mortgage in a condo that I can't sell or rent,
and I don't own a car anymore (couldn't afford repairs last year, had to
donate it), so I am pretty much completely stuck.
John, what is it that you do for money?
So anyway, no, I cannot buy a new K-7, no matter how often I dream of
one. What I spent on the K10D repairs was waaaaaay more than I could
really afford, as it is. I'm sure my credit card company loves me now,
what with all the debt I've racked up in the last year.
Let's hope that the timing works out so that you get some money about
the time that the K7 successor comes out or is affordable.
If you get a small windfall, you might find that the K-x is a good
pairing with the K10. The K10 for good light and ergonomics, the K-x for
portability and high ISO image quality. Though you're probably in the
situation where it might as well be the 645D that you can't afford.
John
