Luiz, it is not clear how wide spread the K-7 will become in Israel.
Presently, no store shows it. I got it on a very special order. It is
therefore possible that if I cancel my order, I will be left without
the camera. I am thinking that I might want to take the risk and if
indeed it proves awkwar
...sad news, but looks like you're not alone, there are lots of reports
about problems in the hi-end Pentax stuff. I remember this happening

Old Pentax lenses are of exceptional build quality.
New ones are also great (next thing I will buy will be 50-250mm, not

Welcome to your new position at Pentax Quality Control. You won't won't
get paid, won't even be supplied with human resources' phone number, let
alone a direct line to a production engineer, but you can end the day
