Optics are the same the only difference is that the DA-L versions doesn't have a metal-mount, lens hood and quick-shift.

The plastic mount doesn't seem to wear much, there are older lenses with a plastic mount which still seems to do fine.

Upgrading will allow you to change sensitivity without using Sv, a facility I have found useful on several occasions.
What do you mean with that? I could always go into the Fn menu to change the ISO, with the newer firmware you can press OK button and you can change the iso with the front wheel.

I would glue that with some good glue specially for plastic, glue is very strong so it would hold easily.

Matt don't forget that the camera the 6x7 is quite a bit larger then a standard 135film camera

here is some info about the 600mm f/4 link

It depends on the situation, if it's constant lighting I set it to M and set it up good once and I can go on shooting for quite a long time before feeling I should change. If I'm in a situation lights change often I use Av most of the time.

Btw the M-mode with the green button setup as an Av-mode on command is very useful!

As for the iso 100 problem I will only have problem in snowy conditions we a'int got that much sun i Denmark anyway.. lol
Well that's the thing, I don't think it's an ISO100 problem only.
The Moire, that you see isn't fully a sensor related thing and so is the rest. It's something that can be filtered at the sensor level and it seems pentax hasn't done that.

I know they didn't do a lot with the 645D either so would be interesting to see how that one would preform.

Wait a bit longer and get the ultimate landscape DSLR, the 645D... it's almost in budget you know

I think your first suggestion would be best, two good f/2.8 lenses are always nice and these lenses have SDM and quick-shift, together with the K7 that makes for a silent combination

Instead of the 360 flash though maybe a Metz 48, it's cheaper has more power and a swivel head.

If he wants a longer lens to go with your fist combination he might consider a Sigma 100-300 f/4 and if he wants more reach use a 1.4x TC.

When comparing the K7 with the K10D it's just not pixels but two completely different sensors.
One is CCD and the other is CMOS so it depends on your shooting style which would be best.

For low iso shots the K10D might be better because it gives you a cleaner photo and has more dynamic range, for long exposures of high iso shots the K7 would be better.
Who is better for large prints... it depends I think the extra pixels of the K7 helps but the pixels of the k10D would look better then the K7 at low ISO.
So is the quality of the K10D good enough to beat the quantity of the k7... I don't know
