The HDMI port on both the K-7 and K-5, fed to the HDMI port on a TV or PC will give

image directly to the PC's hard drive.

Good to know. The DSLR video shooter I worked with last month had a 7-inch HD 
monitor hooked up to his Canon Rebel T2i, which made focusing fairly easy. I 
imagine the same can be done with the K5. Paul

Yes, but you have to use MF since AF doesn't work once you start recording in video mode.

A real tether solution, not just an afterthought, should be able to feet the

I'd be happy with a fully realized tethering solution.
It may be coming in a firmware upgrade for K-5 and 645D.

You didn't hear that from me, because I never spread unsubstantiated rumors. :-)
