Just have to add my voice to Bob's and Paul's. I have two K-7. 6200 exposures combined. Excellent performers, and endures the weather at least as well as advertised. For AF in LiveView or video, you have three options. The first is traditional SLR AF, which implies that when you hit the AF button, the mirror pops down, does the AF, and pops up again to return you to LiveView. Naturally this doesn't work while shooting video. The other AF modes are tech from compact cams. One mode is called "contrast", the other is "face-recognition". Both are excruciatingly slow. In my experience, the light metering and AF speed for ordinary SLR operation is the hitherto best in any camera from Pentax.
