RE: A K7D for Fairygirl (Was Re: Fairygirl is in the house!)
Thanks for this Bill. The compact design is a key thing for me, and one of the reasons that I love the *istD so much. Me, being a girl and all, with my small hands and weak wrists, when I have it loaded up with flash gun, an heavy lens And battery grip, I need to be sure that I can actually hold the thing steady enough to get a sharp pic. I have it pretty much down pat with the *istD (and so I should after shooting with it for so long!), that even when fully loaded up I can get a very usable image shooting right down to 1/16 these days, and as I particularly like to shoot with available light whenever I can, I am really excited about the prospects that the in-body image stabilisation might give me. Battery life is another issue, some of you from GFM when I came might remember the ludicrous amounts of batteries that I go through, which for some reason has always been about double everyone else, even when I am not using the instant review on my camera or flash. The increased FPS rate and buffer size will be a dream too! Can't wait to get my hands on this baby!

How many of you have K20s/K7s and do you think the cost is worth the improvements of the latter over the former? I do.

2010/1/10 Tanya Love tanyal...@bigpond.com: How many of you have K20s/K7s and do you think the cost is worth the improvements of the latter over the former? That depends on your usage. I much treasure the functions beefed up; AF speed, multisegment light metering and fps. But then again I'm probably now the tailgunner mr. Robb mentioned prophetically last year. If you don't need those functions, the only lure of K-7 is some improvements in image quality. The noise floor may be ever so slightly lower, I doubt the measurbators are able to quantify it properly. It might as well be caused by the improved light metering. The K-7 tends to put the to of the histogram hump further to the right than do K20D. There's still a lot of leeway for picking down the highlights, though, so the net effect is that the noise floor seems to be lower.

Re: Fairygirl is in the house!
On 10/1/10, Tanya Love, discombobulated, unleashed: So is it safe to assume then Cotty, that you are still doing your hack-job, backyard surgery on poor, unsuspecting pieces of metal and glass from two different species in the hope of creating a revolutionary hybrid that turns the photographic industry on its head?! Everybody, quick, lock up your angle grinders!! ;-) Well, not really. I went through a mid-photographic-life-crisis (the kind Dave Brooks has been in for years) and sold all my Canon gear! Actually I was so hard up for cash that I had no choice. Kept back my 2 Pentax bastards: the A*85/1.4 and the K15/3.5 and put the K mounts back on so I could use them with my wife's old *istDs that we have. Of course, no aperture stimulators on those, so stop-down use only, which is no problem. I also sold my Epson R-D1 and 2 lenses which I was sad to see go, but setting up and running a business in the UK in 2006 and trying to pay off the loan on a GBP 25k Land Rover, as well as using redundancy to buy 25k worth of filming kit has taken its toll. I decided to stick to video for the time being and bought a small HD camera for professional use: http://tinyurl.com/jvcminicam So there you have it. I'll get back into stills when the good times roll - hopefully this year! -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche -- http://www.cottysnaps.com _ -- 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.

RE: Fairygirl is in the house!
Har! Nope, we didn't make the bicycle trip - got busy having more babies instead! Added two more to the tribe since I was last on the list, so that makes five now... Oh, and I remarried too - hence the name Tanya LOVE - that is my real name, and we aptly call our home the LoveShack! lol. Last year was a really crappy, crappy year from us, we have a new business, Ankle Biters, an online and physical store with eco/organic products for kids and babies and we managed to get ourselves ripped off to the tune of $42k. LONG story, but basically, we are broke and 2009 sucked majorly, but we have themed 2010 as our year of recovery so that the annus horribulus (sic) that was 2009 can go take a hike! Oh yeah, did anyone know that I retired from photography? That was back in late 2006, when I popped out baby #4, Zali. Well, it seems that fate has other plans, and now I'm back at it again. No more weddings for me though, in my last year as a wedding photog. I dealt with about 79 Bridezillas, and that was enough to scare me off for life!

The autofocus is noticeably faster, particularly on moving objects. That's also a huge plus for me.

Not that it's a big issue for me as I haven't EVER had a camera with LP and it is just another battery sucking thing anyways... I am excited at the prospect of having rechargeable batteries! My conscience is really starting to get to me when I stop to consider just how many AAs I have thrown out over the years. I do have rechargeables, but never can seem to find the charger when I need it! Any feedback on the video capabilities? The video capability is nice, but it requires manual focus. However, that's not too much of a problem when using wide lenses in relatively good light. I bought a hood with diopter adjustment for the live view screen. That makes manual focus fairly easy, even when moving. I think the HD video capability in combination with the excellent lenses would be useful for serious applications. I've been thinking about trying to shoot a demo 30-second commercial with it. For kid's birthdays and stuff like that, my Sony video camera is a better choice. I never use live preview mode and rarely shoot in live view, so I can't offer any input there. I have used live view occasionally for framing in situations where I couldn't get to the viewfinder, and I found it useful. But I prefocused.

Hi Tanya, I've been shooting with K7 for almost six months now, and I've clocked 9950 exposures. I love it. The K20D was nice, but the K7 is a major improvement. First on my list of pluses would be far better exposure metering. It's very accurate and delivers repeatable results -- something my K20D could never quite achieve. The autofocus is noticeably faster, particularly on moving objects. That's also a huge plus for me. And the increased frame rate is a big help for a lot of what I shoot: moving vehicles, sports, etc. With that comes faster write speed, which cuts down on waiting until mr. camera is ready to work. Heck, I can't remember ever having to wait with the K7. With the K20D, when I shot a series of autobracket exposures, I'd stand there waiting for the ready light to come back on. The battery life is much better. Even without the grip you can get around 1000 RAW exposures. I have a grip installed and always shoot with two batteries. I've never come close to exhausting them, even in a long day of continuous shooting. Finally, the build quality is superb. The camera is a little tank.

Re: A K7D for Fairygirl (Was Re: Fairygirl is in the house!)
Hi Tanya, To add to Paul's excellent review of the K-7... I've had one for the last 6 months and run up 2,750+ exposures. The size is a bit more compact than the K-20, but still bigger than the *ist DS. The user interface is superb, no more digging thru menus. It's all on the back. It is a truely modern and up-to-date use of the lcd screen to convey info. Autofocus seems faster and is really fast silent with the new internal lens drives. Battery life has changed. The K20 said I'm 1/2 full, no wait, I'm DEAD! The K-7 posts 2/3rds full and keeps shooting until I'm back home for a recharge. And a spare battery cost me US$10, much cheaper than the K20 or K10. I've tried the video here and there. Get a fast card focusing is a user job. :-( Nice to hear from you again. Seems like wedding and kid photos were a good source of income for you. And your kid photos were really good, so I hope you continue. Regards, Bob S.

Last year was a really crappy, crappy year from us, we have a new business, Ankle Biters, an online and physical store with eco/organic products for kids and babies and we managed to get ourselves ripped off to the tune of $42k. LONG story, but basically, we are broke and 2009 sucked majorly, but we have themed 2010 as our year of recovery so that the annus horribulus (sic) that was 2009 can go take a hike! Oh yeah, did anyone know that I retired from photography? That was back in late 2006, when I popped out baby #4, Zali. Well, it seems that fate has other plans, and now I'm back at it again. No more weddings for me though, in my last year as a wedding photog. I dealt with about 79 Bridezillas, and that was enough to scare me off for life!

I am sure that this has been discussed to death a gazillion times over but I'm too lazy to go through all the archives, jeez you guys can talk! The K20D is going for aud$899 at Ted's Camera House here in BrisVegas right now, which looks the best deal I've found so far, so do you think it would be worth the extra $500 for the K7?

Just have to add my voice to Bob's and Paul's. I have two K-7. 6200 exposures combined. Excellent performers, and endures the weather at least as well as advertised. For AF in LiveView or video, you have three options. The first is traditional SLR AF, which implies that when you hit the AF button, the mirror pops down, does the AF, and pops up again to return you to LiveView. Naturally this doesn't work while shooting video. The other AF modes are tech from compact cams. One mode is called contrast, the other is face-recognition. Both are excruciatingly slow. In my experience, the light metering and AF speed for ordinary SLR operation is the hitherto best in any camera from Pentax.

RE: Fairygirl is in the house!
Hey John, Yup, you did get the cogs turning! Lol. Took me a while to get my but into gear and get back on here though. I may be a sporadic poster now, these days I really don't have the time to use up the bandwidth that I used to with 5 kids, the shop and website ( www.anklebiters.com.au )and my commercial photography clients. I'll definitely contribute when I can, mostly on quiet nights/days like last night as I was sitting here weathering the tedious wait for photos to upload to client galleries. Would love to come for a visit, but it is rare that I am without a certain pair that I call Search and Destroy ie. Zali (3yo) and Neo (16 months) aka Destructo Boy and his able sidekick Demolition Girl. Your beautiful home would be feeling the aftereffects of a short visit from them for many months, I fear, I just couldn't bring myself to do that to you guys! I am also in our shop every day from 12 until 7pm, so I am pretty stretched for time... I am closed on Mondays though, so will definitely try and catch up with you both sooner rather than later!

RE: A K7D for Fairygirl (Was Re: Fairygirl is in the house!)
Thanks Paul! I figured as such with the video - not needing it, but there has certainly been times, mainly on a personal level with my kids etc, when I've been out with them, camera over my shoulder and I've thought to myself, oh, if only the *istD had a video capability when they've done something particularly cute. Plus the HD aspect and HDMI input is certainly attractive. With the Live Preview, I am the same, never having had one with the *istD and that being the ONLY camera I have shot with in oh, about 6 years now! I don't see myself ever using it, as like I said, it is a battery sucker, rather than anything else, especially with the viewfinder having 100% coverage on the K-7. I just mainly wondered if anyone else had found that it has an application that I hadn't already thought of that was disadvantaged by it's slowness on that point. Tan. :) Paul wrote: The video capability is nice, but it requires manual focus. However, that's not too much of a problem when using wide lenses in relatively good light. I bought a hood with diopter adjustment for the live view screen. That makes manual focus fairly easy, even when moving. I think the HD video capability in combination with the excellent lenses would be useful for serious applications. I've been thinking about trying to shoot a demo 30-second commercial with it. For kid's birthdays and stuff like that, my Sony video camera is a better choice. I never use live preview mode and rarely shoot in live view, so I can't offer any input there. I have used live view occasionally for framing in situations where I couldn't get to the viewfinder, and I found it useful. But I prefocused.

Re: Fairygirl is in the house!
Hi Tan, Welcome back. The K7 is worth the upgrade from the *ist D. It was worth the upgrade from the K10D too, but someone else will have to tell you if it's worth spending the extra over the K20D. I know I would due to the K7 being smaller, but that's me. Both are weather sealed so that shouldn't make a difference. The movie mode is something I have used more than I thought I would though it is limited, don't expect to use it like you would a normal video camera. There were a couple of features at the time that the K7 had that the K20D, but I can't remember what they are now - I just use the camera and have no thoughts of upgrading to anything different (though 6400 ISO performance could be improved). My 2 istD's (the second I got cheap and kept as a backup) are sitting in a drawer waiting for me to get 2 matching lenses and start playing with stereo photography if I ever find the time).

Thanks Paul, those are my girls again (obviously) - took those up at Fraser Island at the Maheno Wreck. It's a truly beautiful, world reknown location.

I did those for our website - the tutus that they are wearing are made my 11 year old son (yes, SON!) and myself and sold as one of our product ranges...

As an aside, I fine it extremely annoying that sites that

still require me to log in to see that content.

I don't suppose you have a replacement policy for people who didn't

Now you've scared her off again. You do have your uses, after all.

RE: A K7D for Fairygirl (Was Re: Fairygirl is in the house!)
The K20 buffer is large enough that, unless you are a tail gunner, you probably won't fill the buffer no matter which card you use. - Bill Robb I just pulled this from the PDML quotations of last year. Oh, how I crave to be able to shoot more than 2 shots in succession and not have to wait for that little orange light to disappear!! That, and the noise are the two failings of the *istD that I will be happy to forget! How many of you have K20s/K7s and do you think the cost is worth the improvements of the latter over the former?

RE: Fairygirl is in the house!
Lol, well thankfully, she didn't paint the walls with green vomit
immediately after that shot!
That shot is Zali in true form, like I said, she is an animal. A cute one
at that, but prone to completely primal, feral
displays of personality at least 5 or 6 times a day!
