I guess I can see that... I find it fascinating how differently the camera is perceived based upon so many variables. For me (all-green images from something being broken notwithstanding) the K7 is a marvelous camera and a great step up from the K10D. Weird. All the same, the K5 looks great. I'll probably buy one in 2 years (or whatever follows it) when the price is a bit less stratospheric! Frankly, I'd have a hard time "selling" a new camera to The Wife after just getting a new camera. :-) -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- 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.
