Really nice gallery-
My favorite is the couple with the dog- #6. The dog's expression is
right out of a '50's ad campaign.
Good capture.
Cheers

Shooting with this camera, for me, is quite different than the
K20. My rhythm is off--I'm behind, and the K7 is ahead of me.
I've been working on keeping up. :-) One factor involved here is
the K7's sounds are different--lens focusing and shutter etc--I can
barely hear anything, which is good, but it's thrown me off a bit.
Funny how you get used to the sounds of a camera. That horizon
level is amazing. I certainly do A LOT less crop adjustments. I
didn't use the creative filter options on the K20, but I'm having
fun with the K7's filters--pretty fun, in my view. Love the fish-
eye, watercolor, and toy camera filters: http://www.caguila.com/

The view finder is great, and it's easier to see through. I'm not
shooting with the battery grip because I haven't purchased it. A
part of me would like the vertical buttons, but I have to say, it's
been so much fun shooting with a really light camera. That K20 is
a tank, especially with battery grip.
Moving through a crowd with the K7 is fun. It's so quiet. I can
get closer, and I'm quieter. Of course, if you get noticed, you
get noticed, but if you don't and take a picture folks aren't going
to hear much. I worry a lot less about exposure due to the K7's
improved exposure accuracy, and find I'm not chimping as much--
though I do some--but still this is quite liberating. Post-
processing seems quicker--less cropping adjustments et al.
If the rumor is true that a K5 is coming, it's going to be really
interesting to see what the improvements are.
So, I think I'll keep K7. I know I'm singing to the choir here,
but I just wanted to get my say in :-).

More testing and play here. Comments welcome. Cheers, Christine
P.S. I know there are two color pictures in this black and white
gallery, but I just couldn't get rid of the playful purple. :-)
