I recently deleted the wrong directory of pics from my NAS drive (and as it's a network drive they don't go to the recycle bin). I used a piece of software called Active Undelete to recover the pics. I got every single one back.

As others have said, deleting a file doesn't actually destroy it. It just gets 'marked' as deleted and OS knows that it can write something else on to this part of the hard disk - as long as you haven't been defragging your drive or copying lots of files since you should be able to recover nearly all of your images. The sooner you try the more you will recover.

Good Luck!

I've never taken a camera to a concert but have seen security guards confiscating all types of cameras when at the doors, especially at the MEN arena.

My biggest problem is that I've got incredibly good taste and I reckon the K7 is one of the best looking DSLR's on the market! I must resist the urge ... until the price (whatever it is) comes down a bit.
The K-7 may have a lot going for it, but looks isn't one of them - it's a 'proper munter' compared to my K10D / GX-20

Didn't SRS announce a K20D GPS model last year - it never seemed to show up?

I am surprised this wasn't built in to the K-7 or the grip though.

So all in all I find the K-7 better in my hands as the K10D it didn't feel smaller so for all that worried about that it really isn't something to worry about.
Anymore questions?
Thanks for posting this - the new small size was the one thing I was concerned about.

The most important one of waiting for a sensible price is missing from your list. Happy to wait ...

If you use a 300mm on digital then it gives a field of view similar to a 450mm lens on 35mm film. Therefore the minimum hand holdable speed would become 1/450 sec. In reality, I think you would need faster than this as the "minimum" required varies from person to person and day to day and it's very difficult to hold long telephotos still.
I'm glad you said this as I seem unable to hand hold my Sigma at 300mm at anything less that 1/500, even wish SR.

Any tips with hand-holding?

Tried to get a price for the Sigma 105 macro from them but they haven't bothered answering my e-mails....their loss.
I'm not connected to the seller but there is one of these for sale (within the UK) on pentaxforums.com (£210).

Anyone else not liking their grip? I've only had it on a couple of days but I'm not sure about it. It's easier to use in Portrait but it just doesn't feel as well designed as the camera ...

Will give it time, I'm sure it will grow on me ...
