Rick,
I used both K10D and K20D for over a year. one thing that really
peeved me is that the K20 is marketed as an evolutionary upgrade to
K10. That's very, very far from the truth. Especially when it comes to
dealing with the images in post processing. The K10D is a CCD based
camera, with an
Right now, I am not planning to replace my K10D with a K7, because the latter
does not seem to have significantly better low-light performance. By
reputation, the K20 is about 1 1/2 stops better than the K10 in low light, and
the K7 is about a half-stop worse than the K20 (thus a stop better

My opinion, for what it's worth, is that none of the tests really mean
much, and they seem to be more subjective than all the charts and graphs
would indicate.. The best way to see if the low light performance is to
shoot some photos and decide it you like hot they look.

Which leads me to think that the K10 and K7 sensors' low light performance
is almost the same, and only slightly worse thana the K20's. So where
does the K20's reputedly better performance come
C'mon Bill, I still have my K10D and need to feel good about it.

Well thanks for the reply, Tim, but...
Evaluating low-light results with the LCD is like evaluating the flavor of a
steak by looking at its photo in Gourmet Magazine. Only Ken Rockwell does it
that way.

Rick, in my (not really too humble) opinion, most of these tests are
rubbish. I doubt that they are done in statistically correct manner
(read: many scenes, many cameras, many lenses, etc). I also doubt
their sense, as there doesn't seem to be involved any real life
shooting, only special targets
