B******s!
This criteria rules out many of the greatest artists of all time.
Picasso, Da Vinci etc did not stick to a single style (Picasso's early work is VERY different from his later stuff). Indeed to work in diverse media/subject matter it would be impossible to.
Are you saying that it is impossible to distinguish a Picasso from his contemporaries? Even though he went through distinct 'phases' it's not as if he did a little bit of this, a little bit of that - "ooh today I'll do a nice Fauvist crucifixion scene, and tomorrow I'll have a crack at painting sunflowers... just as soon as I've finished writing 'this is not a pipe' under this, er, pipe"

The softness on the K-5 samples may be a stronger AA filter at work. BUT I am sure the softness would not really translate into prints that have been post processed. Just like the noise on the K-7 would not, up to ISO800 if not beyond in some cases.

But I'm sure Stefan's not one to gloat, or insist that rashly offered wagers are honoured ;P

When you look at this thread,the image quality and the ability to cope with noise, this is the camera which should have followed on from the K20!.....must leave the people who bought the K7 pretty deflated!
And aren't you just loving it.
How short memories are. When the k-7 came out people were spunking up all over the spec sheet. It was a resounding upgrade from the slow and rather outdated k20d, and most people thought the fact that it shared the same high resolution sensor was a good thing. The improved sensor in the K-5 was not available then.
You could say the K-7 is the camera the K20 should have been

Don't understand what you say about your instructor's comments re stabilisation. You mean image stabilisation? Your instructor is there to teach photography, not provide a substitute for reading your camera manual

Meanwhile, I'll bet you £50 it was the f2.4!
