K-50 Hands-on Feedback
Hi Pelle51, I went from K100D to K-30, and my thoughts on this mimic yours almost exactly! I don't mind the loss of the top LCD, it's quite funny thinking back about this now. In practise you have to look down to the top LCD anyway, so there's not much in it to tilt the camera forward and loo...

Anyone ever take a K-5 or K-7 apart?
Trap a wire, crease a seal and you've created more problems that you had to start with. I wouldn't dream of doing this, back to JPS for my cameras if there's a problem.

That's what I was thinking too. Also mightn't be 100% waterproof if not sealed back properly (I know it's just a matter of turni...

I wouldn't even consider it - I've seen inside a K-x and that was scarily complex; I can imagine the K-5 would be even more so and the chances of getting it back together properly would be slim. Regards David

Just keep a spare coffee mug to put the little screws in. Are those the screws (and parts) you have left over after you have put the camera back together? :D

Why is nobody selling K-7s?
A MKII would only ake sense of he was a sports or Gig photogrpaher ) or anything else where quick AF is required ) It's not AF speed that is dramatically quicker between the K-5 and the K-5II, although the Mk2 is a little quicker. The real game-changer is the AF accuracy which blows that on the K-5...

Wouldn't have made much difference to my party pics as above - all using an 'A' series lens, and most of my landscapes would be on manual focus as well. But I accept higher performance on the 1 AF lens I use would be a plus. But again, not enough to make the upgrade really worthwhile. I still t...

What, its only the AF then ? Then more of my K7 colleagues will surely be holding out longer then. I'm not sure if there's been any comparisons done on the manual focus performance between the K7 & K5 :wink: (No, you're not getting me to do that one :lol: ) But the group of K7 owners who are in des...

I am sure there are still many happy satisfied Canon 40d and Nikon D80 users about, its so easy to be sucked into "needing" the latest model which is why you see a fair few 'downgrading' for sale ads on the web.. no point buying a Ferrari to just nip into town once a week. ISO, af speed/accuracy ...

Well ... this is just all so ... typical! All we ever get here is 'K5 K5 K5 K5'. It just won't stop will it?! And to cap it all that Rasta Alien thing keeps on appearing, again & again - you can't get rid of it, it just keeps coming back.:| Well its time to fight back - for too long now ...

I said a while back I was going to upgrade my K-7 to a K-5. Well, good news for me; I got an e-mail from Paypal telling me I received €383 from Getty Images for 1 image. So now instead of upgrading to a K-5 I'm going to check out the K-5 II and IIs in more detail and see if it's worth splashin...

Here is a shot taken today with my K7, took it out based on the back of this thread to give it a real run out. Shot manual, ISO100, would have been good to compare my K5 but was travelling light, however I reckon I am pretty pleased with this shot. Will be hanging on to my K7 for a bit longe...
