For whatever it's worth, the one time that I had a chance to compare a K-5 side by side with a D7000 in a low light situation (in the -2EV to 2EV range), the K-5 vastly outperformed the D7000 in every regard. -- Larry Colen [email protected] http://red4est.com/lrc -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
