In your hands the K-7 vs K10D
Thank you for the info. It's going very off topic now btw :wink: I know that Amperage probable isn't an isue in case of a camera but if you drain a battery to quickly they will become to hot right and that's no good either. If I'll do some diy then I'll probable open one of those original packs...

Cheapest K-7 Pre-order price?
There were a few scam dealers around a few years ago who claimed they were expecting hard to locate Leica and other make lenses at very good prices. They took hefty deposits and kept them for several months until the customers got fed up and demanded their money back. So the dealer had free use of t...

news leak specs on new Pentax k-9
Chuckle Don:lol: I hate to think where the eyepiece is. :shock: Talking about speculation, a recent post on the demise of the K20 had me searching back through the forum trying to find out when it was released and if you swap the 7 for a 20, about fourteen months ago it looked just as it does...

HISTOGRAMS
I only use the histogram to check for blown highlights. Even then the camera histogram often tells porkies. I would never delete anything based on the histogram. That is quite a bizarre way to work. Surely you look at the image? All sorts of errors can be recovered back home.

HISTOGRAMS
If I am taking a series of shots in similar conditions I check the histogram on the firs one and then just carry on shooting. I never delete anythything until I am back on the computer. Processing and creative cropping has produced many a shot I am happy to keep.

HISTOGRAMS
The histogram is only showing you how many pixels there are of each brightness level from 0-255. If you had a spotlit tree against a dark background your histogram would heavily be on the left, and so it should. I think it would be very wise if you stopped looking at the histogram until you are b...

...it often goes past that to the second click and you finish up recording trashy little MPG1 files to the memory stick LOL! Ditto! :) Can't remember how many times I've tried to explain that to others :roll: There probably is a market for video in a dSLR. If you've ever seen a high-def camera, ...

Greytop You don't think the alleged lack of auto-focus on a video, sorry stills camera would be a fundamental out-take? :shock: Pentax should at least give the user the choice...unless the Mrs could train as a focus puller.:lol: Rob

Hi Rob, IMHO your argument is floored, being based on hearsay / rumour. Remember no one has published a review of a production K-7 yet...... It seems to me that you have deep rooted dislike of the K-7 for some reason :?: Open mind at the moment...as previously mentioned, no harm in asking ques...
