It seems like the K-7 is already out in Japan. [link= http://www.flickr.com/photos/michiro/3662979382]link[/link]

edit: Lately, I can't make my links work anymore. If somebody could send ideas as to the "why" I would greatly appreciate. Just make sure those ideas are in "babytalk", so I can find my way on my computer.

Thanks to everybody willing (and not so willing) to help me.

It was supposed to be released in Japan yesterday. Obviously they released it even earlier.
It'll get here soon. We hope.

Thanks, Clarky, but I first tried with "copy and paste", and it didn't work, so I tried to input it manually, and it didn't work either. I guess I took the bracket off in my last attempt, but it doesn't explain why "copy and paste" didn't work.

And you are missing an "r" in "around", so it makes me happy to see I'm not the only one missing parts.

Not much of an unboxing is it.
Actually, who's to say its a K-7 .. all I see is a Pentax logo :

If you check the thumbnails on the right, you'll see the K-7 with the uploaded date.

K7 in Japan

It was not brackets but the extra space you had between link= and http:...

If you do a "Quote" on your original, you will see the space, then do a quote on this reply and there is no space.

In Bic Camera (Tokyo) it is 144000 Yen for the K7 with 18-55 kit lens and 129000 Yen for body only - to which there is a 10% discount (to be spent on something else though) and the prices include tax but visitors don't pay that. Those work out at around €920 and €830

I have just looked at the Pentax Japan website and that confirms the camera would be on sale in Japan from 27th June - it was announced on 16th June.
