I saw at Amazon that there is a book for K7, title "Magic Latern Guide - K7", authour is Peter K Burian. Any one has any idea to get this book in Singapore. Looking around some major bookshops but failed to see it.

Retired old man. Never touch a camera before. Last week bought the K7. Reading up on photography and the K7 manual. Quite simple actually. Should not be to difficult to handle the function/feature for K7 once you have the hang of it. Go for K7

IMHO the new DSLR is like a laptop computer squeezed into a camera body. Following through the instruction manual (IM) for Pentax K7, one will get a hang of it quite fast on all the buttons, features and functions. Althought I think taking a good photograph to be appreciate by others is...

Thank to help and posting in CS. Yesterday bought for myself a Pentax K7 ($1350), with twin lenses ($439) (DA18-55WR and DA 50-200WR) from CS Colour. Please don't laugh at this old man. Guess I will start from green mode (auto), just like other PnS and go from there. First impression, Wah so...

Trade in an old G5 that I found in my son's drawer. Anyway he is in US studying and will not miss this old camera, and this G5 had not been working for a while. Negotiate only slightly with Florence. She could have gone lower, if I had pushed harder, but I am a sport.

Newbie to CS and had been following this thread since beginning. Almost bought an EP2, but got poisoned here. Just reach home after visiting MS Colour at AMK. Serve by Florence, excellence service! Bought K7 ($1350), twin lens kit ($439), two Hoya filters, screen protector etc. I am retired and...

Newbie to CS. Have been researching to buy a camera for about a month and would have bought EP2 last week, until I saw this thread. So hold back and now seriously considering to get K7. My son has a very old G5 that had not been working for a while, so there is an old camera to trade in...

I am also newbie. I understand that K7 is now on offer at about $1400 with exchange for any old camera, working or not working. But this is for body only. How about lenses. What type of lenses to get and how much budget?

Is Photoshop lightroom 2 a good software to acquire for newbies or are there some other recommendation, consideration that newbies are entirely new in this game.

Walk by a camera shop at Orchard Towers this EARLY afternoon (not night), and find out that EP2 with either lens cost $1,300.00 (exclude gst) and with two lenses cost $1,500.00 (exclude GST), but no stock. The salesman (one nice Indian gentleman) will call me when stock arrived. Plus some other...

I am impressed by the response. All help me a lot. Surely I have come to the right place. Will surely let you guys know when I made my purchase. So far it is likely to be EP2 or GF1, with Canon G11 coming close.

I chance upon clubsnap while looking at some website to purchase a camera. Wondering if I am to old to take up photography. I am retired and obviously past 55. Plenty of time in my hands. Past six months was golfing but recently due to pain in joints had to stop. Almost bought an EP1, but EP2...
