I tried and tried to get the K-5 from Pentax but they never sent me one. My contact there has left, but hopefully her replacement can hook me up with the K-01. I'd like to see how it performs, myself.

Was hoping for a D800 review. Or, how about the D600?

Also used Amazon for the D7000... how does DCRP get credit?

Thanks.

No time for either of those models, most likely. If you bought through our Amazon links then we should get a commission. Thanks for your support!

For wildlife and macro photography, I am thinking of buying either the Panasonic FZ200 or the Canon SX50 HS.

You just wrote an in-depth review for the Panasonic which I have already read fully.

Lately I have been somewhat dissapointed with Panasonic compact camera's (like the ZS20) due to the noise and even more by the low-contrast detail smudging (grassfields that look like soup and small faces of people that, when pixel peeping, look like water colour painting) even at low ISO's. Even on my Panasonic G3, this detail smudging occurs, although only with higher ISO values.

Even while I love the functionality, user interface and performance of Panasonic camera's, I currently am reluctant to buy the FZ200 due to this image quality aspect.

Therefore I am very interested how the new Canon SX50 HS compares to the Panasonic FZ200.
Although two reviews of the SX50 HS have appeared on the internet, neither of these are as in-depth as your reviews.
So I hope you are able and have the time to review the SX50 HS.

Just lined up the PowerShot SX50, Robbert, so it will be coming right after the G15 review!

Thanks! I am looking forward to your review.

The PowerShot SX50 hasn't shown up yet so I moved the Coolpix P7700 up the list, so it will be reviewed next, and then the Canon.
