Hey Larry,

Thanks for your comments.

I am unfamiliar with any "water resistance" features on the K-7, but it 
has any, it would be a huge plus. I do a lot of work in wet conditions, 
and while I use a rain hood when I can, accidents DO happen.

Indeed, while I was on this recent trip, a VERY well aimed, massive 
raindrop at the lead of a major thunderstom cracked into the back of my 
K10. I blew the water out, but didn't dare turn my camera back on until 
that night. It malfunctioned as my wife's camera did (after she doused 
it), so I let it dry for about 30 hours before I turned it back on. It's 
working fine, now, but I warn you all---that multipurpose "four-way 
controller" button on the back of the camera is pretty susceptible to 
water damage!!!!!

Barry
