Not a troll post! I just wondered if any others, upon reading the Canon 7D review, thought that the K-7 was, if not slighted, noticed that some things were ignored as good or perhaps better than the 7D on K-7?

I thought that the table of statistics (page 20) -- comparing the cameras -- was not the way I would expect to see it. First: the fact that K-7 has DNG RAW format was not highlighted as a plus. I was surprised to see the K-7's VF get a red, although I have not looked thru all three models. Then, of course, the size & weight advantage got no 'green' either --- really, am I the only one who thinks this is a /terrific/ advantage?

I also noticed, when commenting on noise, they seem to go on&on about how all the other cameras are leaving the K-7 in the dust -- then /in one small sentance/ they mention RAW and say something like 'the K-7 gets close to the rest when shooting RAW'.

Firstly, I am not about to diss the 7D. I just looked at the 7D body and said to myself that the 7D didn't have enough buttons on it to suit me -- my preference. I'm quite sure the 7D is a fine camera. I would just like to see the K-7 get credit when credit is due. (And of course, I would like to see the K-X sensor, somehow running with 4 data channels, put into the K-7.
