Hi David,
You're right. The foreground petals on the second flower shot are a
bit soft. I suspect the focal point was the center and the DOF didn't
extend out to the foreground. However, I am going to check focus
accuracy with the new camera one of these days. It will have to wait
until next week however.
Thanks for looking and commenting. I hadn't noticed that.

Other than the second flower shot, which looks off on the focus, they
are great examples. If you were selling me a K-7 and 60-250, I'd be
buying it.
But since your not.:-)
As you mentioned later, you are impressed with the metering and that's
my main complaint on my K10-D and also my istD when i had it. Very
inconstant between shots, blown out sky's, etc. This could be a deal
clincher for me, despite the slightly smaller size of the camera, but
the grip could solve that for me.
BTW i like the yellow Asian lilies. How do the yellow ones turn out
for you. Mine still have to be worked for luminous or saturation a
bit, but now were near as bad as orange and red.
