High ISO performance?

Has the performance at high ISO been improved compared with K20D? There is no news on this and no mention of this in the wiki. Amphylite (talk) 02:30, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The pre-release reviews were forbidden from including high-ISO shots, so there's no data on that yet. We'll see (and be able to update the article) when reviews come out. Matthew Miller (talk) 17:45, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting... that suggests that any improvements will likely be firmware-based rather than due to any changes in the hardware... Moxfyre (ǝɹʎℲxoɯ | contrib) 20:06, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

...or that the improvement is hardware-based and the firmware isn't yet optimized for it... Inconclusive, really. Wesbo (talk) 17:37, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

new feature?

The K-7 is listed as having "new features" not found on the K20d, but the "HDR" function is not really new. The K20d has a multiple exposure feature that, if it isn't exactly the same, is functionally the same. Perhaps this should be clarified or removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.65.34.174 (talk) 19:36, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
