I do find myself in low light on many occasions. I mean, what active photographer doesn't? I was attracted to the K7 because of all the good things I heard about the 77 point exposure system, which I figured would affect a higher percentage of my shots. It was tempting, however, to wait for the K-r since I was choosing between the K7 and the Kr, which have similar prices.
