We seem to be getting mixed messages on this one.....

I seem to remember hearing in the official Pentax video preview that the K-7 used contrast based autofocus when in video mode :

Seeing the body like this makes me wonder how long the coat will last?
I agree, that's a concern I have too.
I would hope that the painted surface is pretty durable but I doubt that it's quite as tough as the outer shell of the K20D :
I'm thinking with respect to knocks and marks through general wear and tear.

Handling looks to be slightly worse than the K-7

Mike, maybe the type of sound also has something to do with it?

Maybe that was because it was a preproduction unit?
I understand the production unit has an integral mono microphone and a external stereo microphone input.

Sorry Jeanette!
I was tempted to order from them once myself (a HD camcorder) but other's experiences put me off. If you look at their T&Cs (link at the bottom of their web page) you will see who they are

Hi Gary,
Welcome to the forum , I'm a relatively new adopter to Pentax having come from Olympus. So sorry but I don't feel particularly qualified to comment on older manual lenses
Enjoy your K200D
