True to its series concept, it was designed not only to assure outstanding image quality, but also to provide exceptional ease and comfort of operation and the utmost satisfaction to photo enthusiasts of all levels, including advanced amateurs. After making a thorough review of all essential digital SLR camera components and functions, PENTAX has revised and upgraded many of them, including viewfinder, shutter unit, continuous-shooting capacity, and exposure and autofocus systems. Protected by a durable, high-quality metallic body, but the K-7 is designed to be extremely compact and functional — just like all other K-series models — for enhanced portability and maneuverability.

Dealers less common than for other makes.

The Pentax K7 is a new approach to high end Digital SLRs camera from Pentax. It is an eager-to-perform no-nonsense workhorse which is compact, capable, and weather resistant. I predict this camera will be a benchmark for when the DSLR became less like an electronic toy and more like the...

Pros
Takes beautiful images; fast and powerful; rugged and durable
Cons
Big, heavy and more expensive than many used cars
Recommended it?
Yes
It surprised me that nobody has written a good review of this camera, and it's a bit late since it's already replaced by the D4. Still, there are a few D3Ss left on camera store shelves, and in view of the horribly bad availability of the D4, you might still be tempted to buy one. Should you?

If you're a professional looking for a reliable and high-performance workhorse, I highly recommend this camera.
