Thanks Ecke. And you're right, my camera does take good pictures.
Seriously, I'm liking high ISO capability more than I thought I would. It gives 
me the luxury of a range cushion. With the K7, I would have probably shot this 
at ISO 400, f4, 1/250th. Since the lens was at 250 mm, it would have been iffy.
