anyway from what i'm reading, looks like the K-7 is really quite poisonous. the spec sheet (improved AF, auto WB, video, fps, size, etc) will be able to poison some users into buying/upgrading. then once the first K-7s start appearing at pentax outings i think a lot more will be tempted to upgrade since apparently pentax put a lot of thought into the actual design and handling.:devil:
there is something called
"no money" :bsmilie:
but you can dream of it, until you have....
yah that's the third category that's immune to the poison.
the rest better beware..
go win UK young photographer of the year award, then you can succumb to the K-7 this time around

life is like that la... cannot have the best of both worlds la... how i wish im still a student... got more time to shoot... but then again, if u r a student...unless u are born rich else can oni dream of all the new stuff...
as a student, how u wish u are working now, earning money and buying the things u want... then again, u will be surprise how little time u are left with once u started working, plus all the commitments u got to attend to once u started working...
to be honest i rather be in ur shoes, although no fancy equipment but got time to shoot rather than having all the nice stuff but just leave it in the dry box...

sounds so true.. looks like we all got to wait until we retire to enjoy premium gear. oh wait.. we'll have bad eyesight by then.
in this review it mention this
"Where I really stumbled though was with the new locking mode dial. While I understand the thinking in this feature more serious photographers are going to want to lock in their settings so they don't have to worry about accidentally changing the dial the knurled knob on my pre-production K-7 was small, awkward, and very difficult to change quickly."
I think i like this lock dial thing, as I often.. very often, accidentally change mode without knowing as the dial is turn when i sling the camera, or an accidental movement that changes the setting...
fengwei.. organise a Group Buy for Clubsnap member lah.. maybe title.. be the first 20 to own K-7... hahaha.. ask the new agent for prices... and we help promote...
My MZ3 has this "small and awkward" button too, and I love it
Sometimes I really wish my K20D had it too. This ... we have to wait and see. The camera isn't available anywhere yet, be patient

in the brief time i spent with my friend's KM 7D, i really couldn't get used to the locking dials, it was so hard to turn the knob while holding the middle button down. if it were up to me i'd make the middle button like a switch, lock when depressed and unlock when depressed again. but i don't know, maybe it just takes practice.
I've sent him an email regarding the possible meet up w/ us local Pentaxians
BTW, there is a wakeboarding competition next month:
http://www.wakeboard.com.sg/
I'm guessing Mark is coming for that event, but I'm not so sure about it yet. Good news is, our local Pentax agent, Emjay, will be one of the sponsors for that event
Cool...haven't shoot wakeboarding for a while, the last one was at Marina.
Hey guys, check out the current Pentax gear in production:
I guess we just need some BIG GUNS
This "family portrait" is cool! But K-m and K20D are still in production, so should be included.
amazing, Amazing, AMAZING K-7! Woohooo!!!
*sorry i cannot contain my excitement, the feature set is just so wow!
