I suspect the K-5's going to be pretty much the K-7 with a new sensor and maybe a couple extra fps (the Sony 14.6MP CMOS sensor and the rumoured 16MP CMOS sensor are both capable of 7+fps and are the likely candidates for the K-5's sensor). Might even see a 1/250 flash sync if we also get the extra fps. Aside from that probably incremental improvements to the video function and LV implementation and hopefully a flip/twist LCD (I really miss that from the G1 and E-30)
Even with that, I'm expecting it to be a nice upgrade. K-x or better high ISO, resolution at least as good as the K-7 and all the improvements to the non-imaging parts the K-7 already got. -Adam On Sun, Aug 15, 2010 at 2:54 PM, Jack Davis <jdavi...@yahoo.com> wrote: > I feel your euphoria, Christine.
