Well there's underwhelmed and overwhelmed, both of which are bad, so I
figure that being whelmed is just right. :-)
Matter of fact, I *can* afford the K-7 ... but I'm not going to buy one
now. My money would be better spent on a DA* 55 or maybe the 60-250.
I spent 18 months working with a K100Ds, first learning how to make it
work, then learning how to get the most out of it. When I finally felt
that it was holding me back in a few ways I bought a K20D. I'm only
about 3 months into the learning curve with this miracle of photographic
technology and I'm probably good for another 12-18 months before I need
to think about adding a K-7 to the kit.
I'm really excited that Pentax has produced this little wonder. It means
that my gripe about shutter noise and size/weight can be easily fixed
anytime just by getting it. But more importantly it also means that
Pentax has vitality and will less likely disappear, forcing me to have
to replace everything with Nikon gear. It will likely add more Pentax
owners to the user-base which helps us all.
I don't mind all the hoopla at all.
