They clearly state "pre-order" and "Due Mid June '09"
Everywhere else seems to be saying mid July.

Nope, manual focus & single shot.
My K10D has never been set to machine gun mode.

Suppose I could have taken video though and posted a 4gig file

Thanks for the comments and ID, I used my K10D, Tamron Adaptall 2 90mm f2.8 macro and old Pentax AF280T flash gun. Must say I prefer that flash over my Metz 58 any day.

Come on Mike, don't bore us with excellent macro images . . . unless it's taken on a pre-production K-7

You know something, I looked at these pics and wondered if they would be any better with a K-7 .. and I'm not sure they would.

Would be fun trying though ...

Apparently there will be a camera (stripped down K-7) announced/released around Xmas that will replace both the K200D and K20D. This will leave Pentax with 3 levels of camera.

LINK

In Spanish but half way through he comapres the K20D fps with the new K-7.
I thought the K-7 sounded slow until he fired up the K20D.

It seems dust removal is improved in the K7. Maybe you can sell it to her that way.
Good point, maybe I could buy her a new pair of designer glasses and mention the improved autofocus at the same time.

I promised the wife a new Hoover but she didn't seem impressed.
