Sorry George but the K7 does not have the same sensor as the K20D. The same size and pixel count/density maybe, but it has been totally redesigned having 4 read channels compared to the K20D's 2 channels.

The sensor was modified again between pre-production models, like that which Unlocker was using for 2 weeks , and the production models on sale now.

Let's hope the seller doesn't frequent this forum. The 1.7x AF converter is worth at least £200 on its own, depending on condition of course.

I don't have a K-7 to compare but, other than my subject being out of focus, I'm quite happy with this shot noise wise. K20D + DA* 50-135mm, 1/125s, f2.8, ISO6400, no flash, from about 30-35 metres. The image has been 'cleaned' with Noise Ninja.

This is the only shot I took throughout the evening at ISO6400 and I screwed up the focussing. The subject is Rocky Athos, lead guitarist of John Mayall's current touring band.

I took only one lens, the DA* 50-135mm, I should have taken the DA* 60-250mm.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. If you want pirated software you need to look somewhere else.

What a load of bottox (intentional spelling adjustment out of respect for the female members). Did you get wonderful grain free images shooting ISO 6400 on film?

I'm quite happy with my results, I try and work within the limitations of the hardware as I understand them. I haven't exceeded my camera's capabilities yet.

Realistically, if you bought it a couple of months ago you should get back what you paid for it, or near enough, if the street price is now closer to the post hike price. Good luck with it.

The lenses in my sig. are those that I use all the time Stefan. I have a few (too many) more that are destined to become eBay fodder fairly shortly.

How strange, That's a series F lens in an FA body.

If I were you I'd settle for 70-75% of what you paid for it, ignoring recent price hikes.

My offer satisfies the higher limit if you paid what I think you paid for it. But hey, please don't sell it to me for peanuts. I'll just put it on eBay and make the profit that you should be making.
