Generally much better. I have the 540. It has been overexposing a bit, but that's easy to dial down. I've been shooting an open house here at work with a wide variety of situations (small rooms, big rooms, open conference areas under a tent) and the worst I've had to do is dial +1 to -1.5 on the back of the flash occasionally. What the K7 does NOT do is anything like the K10's paranoid "oh my gosh, I see something bright in the exposure (a mirror, a piece of glass) so I'll just quench the exposure entirely and make the whole screen black" underexposure. In short, I'm getting a lot more usable photos with the flash. Happiness. PLUS it's actually locking focus - in a room dark enough to require flash. Could never count on the K10D to do that. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - charl...@visi.com Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
