Pentax K-7, an improvision of the K20D and trend catch-up of the modern Video tech-dslr
So you think I'm still a fan of Pentax after converting to Nikon? Yes ofcourse I am, Pentax is my ex-lover and I'm still waiting for Pentax to produce some stunning lines of Digital camera tools. I would love to own both Pentax system and Nikon system one day.. ahaks,sorry Canon, no room for you even if I like your white lens.
To be honest, Sony, Olympus, Sigma are left behind by the improved and demanded technologies developed by both Nikon and Canon. Sony still has a lot to learn in terms of popularizing its system, even their array of lens (though its a ZEISS), couldn't overthrow Nikon's 24-70 f2.8. Guys,keep in mind that Sony is an expert in DIGITAL ELECTRONICS while NIKON, CANON and perhaps the digital leftout Pentax are famous lens developer for high profiles groups and organization like the medical sector, military sector... and more. Thus thats why I trust lenses produced by them (except for the plasticy low-end lens which I once owned).
K-7 owns an ULTRA WIDE LCD for 3inch viewing.
Among the retained features (which gave me reasons to love pentax) are
Compact, magnesium alloy bod (Tough, Rugged Body)
14.6 megapixels
3 inch LCD
Weather, dust and cold resistant
Multiple exposure settings
Shake Reduction system (on camera)
Dust-free image capture
Advanced white balance settings
Extended battery life
Mirror Lock-up function
HDR image capture mode
RAW f file compatibility compatibility
Dedicated RAW button
New features that makes me love this camera are:
New PRIME II Image processing engine (burst up to 5.2 frames per seccond)
High top shutter speed (up to 1/8000)
New 77-segment metering system 100% field-of-view viewfinder
HD Movie Capture
High resolution playback
Faster, more responsive AF
Advanced white balance settings Extended battery life
Electronic level function Custom Image modes
Dynamic Range setting
Lens Correction functio
Composition adjustment feature
Embedded copyright feature
What else could I say? Perhaps the best thing that would place Pentax in the top lines as Nikon and Canon are: 1st, Full Frame Sensor feature. 2nd, a list of HIGH performance optics such as the 24-70,70-200 f2.8 to rival Nikon and Canon lens. I'm looking forward at Pentax to improve their line of products. Perhaps their business strategy would succed in the least 5 years to come. By then I might be profitable enough to own two system and perhaps trash the current one (if Pentax is capable of overthrowing them) HAHAHA.
