So I did. Paid 1300 for a K-7, last summer. With some luck I might
be
able to get 600 for it now, on ebay. The K-5 is rumored to be at
around
1600.
Spent the last months doing a lot of audio and scanning old analog
work
from better days while the K-7 sits in a cupboard. So much for
"takes
your chances...".
I took my chances with the K7, and it produced thousands of photos,
many of which brought in a substantial amount of money. It was a
good investment, and it will now make a good backup. I'm happy to
get rid of the K20 as a backup, because in shooting situations
where there's little time to fool with exposure, the K20 didn't get
the job done. The K7, on the other hand, is totally reliable in
regard to exposure and far better in autofocus mode.

Paul, you and Ralf do totally different kinds of photography.
I realize that Peter, but the K7 gets a bad rap from posts like that,
and I have to protect my resale value for next year when the K3
becomes available:-).
