To my old eyes the finder looks a bit narrower, but also higher than before. It is hard to tell from the pictures. According to rumoured specs it will have 100% coverage and 92% magnification.

Re: Pictures of K-7
There's unlikely to be further drop in current models prices with this announcement. We're looking at a model that slots into the Pentax line above the K20D. Only when the replacement for that camera is actually announced do I expect to see a deeper discount on that model and the K200 is only ~$100 less. The K2000/Km is unlikely to drop in price, it's damed near brand new. Martin Trautmann wrote: Any bets on when this camera will hit the market? I'd guess about Thanksgiving.
