In the mean time, some of the first analysis are extremely promising. Today I will point out to three of those articles, the first from Adorama, who qualified the K-7 as "no less than a game changer". Wow!
Thanks to its many unique, innovative features, the Pentax K-7 makes a compelling case for owners of other brand cameras to change systems. As Jack says, it's nothing less than a game changer.
The second was posted by one of the most respected places, Imaging Resource. It's possibly the most detailed article published thus far:
Pentax has it right when they call the K-7 a camera with pro features at a semi-pro price. I'm tempted to warn pure amateurs away from the Pentax K7, as I did with the Nikon D300, so that they don't get lost in its wonderful tangle of fine-tuning options. But the good news is that if you lock the Pentax K7 into Green zone mode it turns off most of the options that can befuddle and just starts using Pentax's years of experience to take well-balanced photographs.
The third was posted at a more general site, Wired, who also had nice words about the K-7:
Pentax has nearly hit a home run with the K-7. It's svelte, sturdy, fairly easy to operate, has a great range of available lenses and a feature set that's unmatched at this price
All in all, it seems Pentax has a very strong contender, and one that could make important shift in the market of dSLR. Now, stay tuned to the heavy weights of reviews to see how this goes on. My feelings? More than a few pros will switch of brand in the coming months.
