Why then is UK price £ 1,200.
Where did that price come from?
I think Park Cameras have the body at £1199 but I'm sure (hope!!) Chris at SRS can do better than that.

I really want one. Want more switches-less menus (k100d user).
However yanks are paying $1,300 which is £ 830 at todays rate. Why then is UK price £ 1,200. What am I missing here? Or are our overseas cousins just getting a better deal yet again?
Please tell me to get over it, I really want an upgrade before the wife finds my cash
Resistance is futile

Don't forget the batterys are not the same as the K20D?
Yes I noticed that one Tel, bit of shame as that will require some extra investment.
However the handy thing is that the grip does take 6xAA as a backup

I have to admit I couldn't resist either

I've pre-ordered the body and grip....

So apparently the first USA retailer has it for preorder on their website at $1200 body only .. whats the betting on UK price?
£1100 my bet.
Lower, lower!!

My guess is similar to Tel's between £1000 and £1100....

I pretty much agree with you Rees but I guess the K-7 will offer an interesting alternative to the fixed lens situation on my Sony HDR-SR11. Particularly at the wide end (depth of field too of course).
Having said all that the likelihood would be that I would only use it to capture something if I didn't have my Sony handy

Have you tried manual-v-autofocus on the same subject/target?
