k7 v k20 for noise
It's a bit reminiscent of the Hi-Fi market, where the specifications don't always relate to how something sounds.
THis is why some English amplifiers don't look good on paper, but sound terrific. Quad would be a good example of this.
We shouldn't lose sight of what our cameras are for.

Bet there's nobody else on here with a Myst TMA3 amp though...
I've got a Quad FM4, can I join the gang too?

Of course. And we need to petition Downing Street not to turn off FM transmissions.

I just like taking photographs!
You cant be doing it right

Does the Sugden A21a Series Two count as a fine example of: "Cottage Hifi" ?? I love the simplicity of this system. And the acoustic picture it provides. Waaaayy of topic, I know

I've never had the chance to use a Sugden but yes it certainly counts!
Now valve amplifiers produce a richer sound, so just maybe our A/D converters should have valve amplifiers....now who said they wanted larger and heavier cameras?

And here we are....Moaning and wining about the latest price increase of our other hobby equipment.

...before i go splashing out £1200 on a k7 i wanna know its that much better,...
And ignore all these inadequate tests by people who ought to be out shooting.

Hah ! Of course indescriminately slagging people off on a public forum is much better use of time than performing a few home-grown comparisons. Strangely, some people may actually appreciate the effort of the latter.
Shouldn't you be out "shooting" or is a 400mm & 2x TC still not enough reach to take a usable photo from such a high horse ?

Come on Bob,
Is it so hard to see at who George is referring to? He is talking about Depressingreview (and the pixel peeping inhabitants) and idiots like Rice High. No one at this forum is being slagged.
And as a side note, it is advisable to quote a complete text and not just a small part.
Because this:
And ignore all these inadequate tests by people who ought to be out shooting.
sound rather very different compared to this:
The K7 has the same sensor as the K20D. You're not going to see a massive difference.
And ignore all these inadequate tests by people who ought to be out shooting. In time it will become clear that the K7 is much the same as the K20D from the point of view of image quality (maybe slightly better), and rather superior in most other ways.
You can ofcourse, as a viable alternative always read back every post to make sure you place every remark in the right context.
To keep matters in perspective, right?
Just my two cnts,
Martin.
