Good to hear its still snapping! My k-7 has three times now given me a stuck shutter. Turning it off and then on again results in a locked camera. Then turning it off a 2nd time and on again and it all works just fine. Its like the shutter is only opening halfway...this was all in a period of a few days and haven't seen the problem since. Very odd. The k-7 needs replaced. With them getting near 250-300 for a mint copy, its going to be hard not to just buy another one sooner or later. I love the color off that camera! Certainly punchier than the k-5. I dislike the shadow noise and creeping noise at even iso 400 though. Such is life. In good light or on a tripod at base iso that camera is very, very good.
