Either could be a possibility but I would say the MTBF of SDM is the more likely.

Nothing dull about them Greg, I especially like the one with three or four paragliders cresting the beach top.
Great colours as you say a lovely day

Really sorry to hear that particularly the fact it was all you gear . I do hope it's all cleared up quickly and somebody has picked up and looking after it safely for you.
Just in case, like other have mentioned I would be thumbing through the home insurance terms.
Hope it all works out for the best.

A K-7 Super definately appeals, what I would like to see in it:-

- FASTER AUTOFOCUS!
- Higher ISO performance (which would come with the newer sensor anyway)

- FASTER AUTOFOCUS!
- Same body design as it's great, so same grip, but drop the grip price a bit please!

- GPS built in for geotagging.
- FASTER AUTOFOCUS!
and a 2 week testing period so I can make you all jealous again!
PS. Excuse the beers, but I would like the autofocus to be a bit faster!
Yes, that would be fine! But fast autofocus needs not only the body but also an upgraded SDM.A K-7 Super definately appeals, what I would like to see in it:-

I think he and others witnessed one of the preproduction K-7s at SRS performing very impressively with some production SDM lenses.
Much faster than the current K-7 firmware would appear to allow. So the potential appears to be there.

This is exactly what I found when I did a few tests between my K20D and my new K-7 just after it arrived in July last year. From my experience, on a RAW level, in terms of noise, the K20D and K-7 are similar enough for any difference to be academic.
Just to satisfy my own curiosity I used my FA 50 f/1.4 on both cameras to take a series of RAW shots in different lighting conditions at ISO 1600 and above. The results were so close to the point that it made no difference.
I was happy with that because I always considered the K20D to be a pretty good performer at high ISO (quite a marked difference to my old Oly E-510).
