Can't we just offer Red Rings instead?

I'm not talking about xboxes.

Wait, Adrian made Scott switch? But Adrian was Canon not that long ago! Did they switch around the same time?
it was Scott who convinced Adrian, Adrian just switched to Nikon about a month or a few weeks before I did

So I think i started a big argument over at Pentax. They are going at it with the 7D. The majority have said its the right move. However, the fanboys have come out!

EDIT: This was the original thread i started two days ago not trying to flame anything or insinuating anything negative. The fanboys have just taken it and ran with it.

It's good to see somebody in there called out all the crazies on D700 comparisons to the k-x...like I said, some Pentax users are lost in the sauce!

hehe yeah somebody is comparing the D700 to the 7D also and to their own little camera... and one guy even goes as bold as this
I believe its pretty close to the Kx.
Personally I wouldn't get a 7D for low light specifically, but for resolution and sheer performance(AF and continuous)... the 7D is simply amazing! It's the only camera that buries the D700 and matches the D3x in terms of resolving power. It also has amazing red channel performance from RAW(better than the D700) and the ability to pull detail like crazy.
Anyways, I really don't know much about Canon glass, but if I was in the market for an above average camera, this would definitely be on the top of my list.
I would say comparable, but definitely does not bury the D700 in any way... IMHO/AFAIK
and somebody in there is like us....and answered this:
While I can understand your claim about the K-x holding its own against the 7D, to say that it holds its own against a full frame D700, for example? Either the folks youre going with are really poor users of their cams, or it's just way too much exaggeration...
