It's not 20FPS, it's 7FPS for 20 shots, as opposed to 8 shots at the moment.Can you imagine the real wear & tear on a shutter at 20 FPS?

(must read all comments prior to jumping in!)
I did actually only buy my K7 for the higher FPS. It compliments the istD and K10D very well.

Hm, notice the remark RE: loss of screwdrive focusing.
Wonder if the F1.7 Teleconvertor will work with these new lenses.

Good link Stefan.
Interesting comment "Pentax used to be perceived as an “economy” brand, but we’re moving away from that image".
Indicative of the end of lower prices?

Especially when it comes to tilt and shift lenses, fast telephoto's and not needing to buy third party lenses because your own range covers all requirements.Canon and Nikon cannot compete with the K-5 at the moment that's for sure.
Fleet Street must be ready to unload so much Canon & Nikon equipment.
I think we need to keep our feet on the ground. So many previous comments here saying that "machine gun mode" is not required etc. etc.

Some comments here link from Ned Bunnell about the K-5, he mentions the natural colours. Mr Rocky Rockwell commented that his D7000 (same sensor) has exactly the same colour renditions as his other Nikons (after he sets the same settings in the colour control) so he knows what to expect.
This point in particular means that the base settings for all Nikon models must be the same? Nedd’s comment raises the question that maybe he thinks there is a colour difference between his K7 and his K5?
The "different sensor" (CMOS only) reason is weak based on Rockwell’s comment. So have we had a different roll of digital film with each Pentax DSLR?
Once we get some postings from the members with K5's rolling through it will be worth looking to see if there is a difference. If some have the K5 and another Pentax body, maybe they can do an identical subject comparison?
