Hands-on with the Pentax K-7 at the Red Bull Indianapolis Grand Prix
Posted on August 31, 2009 | No Comments
One of the downsides to covering gadgets on a daily basis for as long as I have is the fact that I think everything is crap. Very few things excite me and anything that does usually ends up falling short of my expectations.
