generally a positive review, but i hate the way he worded his conclusion :
The Pentax K-7 is one of most pleasant surprises of the year, offering impressive functionality with over half a dozen stand-out features including HDR recording; an electronic level function; a decent HD movie mode; copyright image embedding; and a tough, rugged but lightweight build. If the image quality from the K-7 is not quite as good as the Canon 50D or Nikon D300; it's certainly a vast improvement over Pentax's previous top-of-the-line model. The mid-level professional camera category has suddenly gotten a whole lot more interesting.
... he's referring to the k-7's (legitimately) worse high ISO performance and poorer image quality at ISO 3200, but the phrasing makes it sound like the k-7 is all around inferior to C* and N*
