K-7 now £799!!
With the K-7 you get micro focus adjustment, weather sealing, 100% viewfinder, more fps, another wheel, top lcd and probably a few other things that (to me) justify the price difference. My complaint is the noisier sensor. It's about 1 stop worse than the K-x, but the low ISO noise is better than...

Low noise isn't the be all and end all. :wink: No, its not the be all and end all but the fact still remains that only Pentax would only have a line up of 2 cameras and the one that costs half the price of the other has a better sensor. Total madness imo.

If the k-x sensor is that much better than the k7 Why don't pentax offer a up grade (you the owner pay for p&p plus the difference of a sensor and pentax fit a new updated sensor) I think if this is available more people may believe in the pentax brand. and pentax up grade all new k7's with...

If the k-x sensor is that much better than the k7 Why don't pentax offer a up grade (you the owner pay for p&p plus the difference of a sensor and pentax fit a new updated sensor) It probably isn't be compatible with the rest of the camera - physically and electronically.

Hmm. Fullframe with the sensor from alpha 850? would be nice... Bret Well, the possible Pentax FF is a bit controversial issue. Besides Pentax I also use C, so there I have the opportunity to upgrade. I had already thought it over several times but allways have come to the conclusion NOT to upgr...

I do wonder if we wont be seeing a K-7 Super very soon ... basically the same camera but with the Sony A550 sensor (which I believe is the same as the K-x but with a few more MP). No matter how fast technology moves I really can't imagine Pentax will allow their cheaper body to have better pictur...

It's only in high iso when the K-X is better at iso100 the K7 wins, certainly since that is a special extended mode for the K-X. At iso200... I really don't know, I thought the K7 has less artefacts there up until iso400 but ain't 100% sure... I hardly shoot over ISO400 most of the time I'm at i...

A K-7 Super definately appeals, what I would like to see in it:- - FASTER AUTOFOCUS! - The new sensor from the K-x or better - FASTER AUTOFOCUS! - 1080P video @ 24FPS & 30FPS, with ISO control as well as aperture and decent autofocus! - FASTER AUTOFOCUS! - Higher ISO performance (w...

Low noise K-7
[quote:3496ace15f="jps"] So what you are saying is that as well as being outperformed by a current lower priced model of the same brand the K-7 is also beaten by the camera it effectivly replaced? :wink: Thats a good point, but isnt the extra noise on the K7 caused by the fact there is more circui...

Low noise K-7
From my experience, on a RAW level, in terms of noise, the K20D and K-7 are similar enough for any difference to be academic. This is exactly what I found when I did a few tests between my K20D and my new K-7 just after it arrived in July last year. Just to satisfy my own curiosity I used my FA 50...

Repairs Grief
If not, invoke the UK warranty, assuming of course that you bought it via a UK Pro dealer My gx20 failed after 18 months i contacted samsung to find out how much it would cost to repair (sensor problem) gave them the serial number THEY told me it was still under guarantee (even though i did not have...

ISO accuracy
Is this the first time you've used your new camera? Tried cleaning the contacts on the lens and camera body? Be good if you could take and upload some images.

ISO accuracy
There are all sorts of issues here. Please excuse me if some of the following sounds like teaching grandma to suck eggs. You clearly have plenty of experience with film. Firstly, clearly, we need to make sure the camera is working at all. Are you getting acceptable images when just using it in ...
