I saw a few shots done with the onboard. Close ( 2-3 ft), no hot spots,
blown highlights, ok, if you want to use the onboard. I would think a
dedicated flash would fare as well or probably better. I do know that once
it was in my hand, my hand didn't want to release it's grip. Fit my hand

Any one try it with a flash.??

It seems to be about the size of the istD, but sharper, with a more

Steve,
I'm not Doug either, but I did fondle the K-7 on Saturday.
Nothing is as small as the DS, but the K-7 is smaller and sharper
angled than the K10 or K20.
It feels notably smaller than the K10 or K20 and handles that way.
See the comparison shots posted online.
Plus the screen on the back look
I must say I'm quite happy with my K20D. I'm actuaælly considering buying a
second one.
Perhaps I should go for the K7 in stead. Or maybe the new K7 will make used

I'm definitely selling my K10D. I just use it for back-up and for aerial

I've got something to dislike, the fact that I don't have a copy of
the finished version sitting in my camera bag right now

new camera. But I couldn't control my inner curmudgeon, and felt obligated to
add a contrarian note to the symphony of praise:-).

Today I ran through some of the files, and I will be posting a few,
