I had been a Pentax fan ever since the days of the old film cameras, having owned five in total. Pentax arrived late in the DSLR scene and I was avidly awaiting to get mine. I got the IstDS… a total fiasco in terms of usability and image quality. Nostalgia (and the hope of using a good number of Pentax lenses I own), I guess, led me to get the K-7. Another fiasco. It feeds erroneous information to the photographer (disconcerting), AF is slow and inaccurate, and image quality remains appalling. A piece of junk. I would not recommend this to an enemy or to anyone else for that matter. Moving over to NIKON which I should have done in the first place

I bought this camera for my wife for Christmas, and she loves it. She is not a professional photographer but has lots of experience with photography. For the last several years we have had a point and shoot camera which served the purpose but seeing the pictures she has taken in the last month and a half proves the money is worth it.

i’ll keep it short and simple; i <3 my new camera. i’m upgrading from a pentax k100D, so this is quite a step up. i love the metal body, the weather sealing is a plus, and the kit lens is better than i expected. (i’m less than thrilled with my old kit lens, the 18-55 AL lens that came with the k100d.) the camera is super sharp with my 50mm 1.4 lens. issues with high iso noise can be worked around by changing some of the custom settings on the menu. the 5.2 fps continuous mode is a huge step up from barely 3 fps on my k100d. the auto focus is also much better. only time it hunts is if its pointed at something smooth and solid colored. if you’re thinking about buying it, go ahead. you’ll be happy you did.

I’ve had the camera a little over a month now and I’m thoroughly impressed. It shoulde be noted I purchased the Pentax 55mm fixed lens as well. The quality of the photos is absolutely fantastic. I haven’t delved in to too many of the manual modes other than adjusting the ISO a few times as needed. Great camera!

I still have a lot to learn with this Camera, But I have searched for months to find the camera of my choice and The Pentax K7 won out . There are other great camera’s out there, But this camera is for me. It is lightweight and smaller than many of similar camera’s The 14.6 MP is great for me because I take a lot of pictures that I need to crop more than 50 percent of my view. Sometimes you don’t know you have a good picture until it is over. Maybe a picture of that someone special that is sitting in the back corner. I shopped around quite a bit and Amazon offered the best deal with assurance of quality and service. I have purchased many products from Amazon over the past few years and they have become my first choice for online shopping.
