The other day i was 'shocked' ; ) to find out that the Q7 is not only a diferent design witch i knew/noticed but its also bigger! not to mention the mx-1, i carry the Q all day with me either in a backpack or on my neck under a jacket and i even forget its there! im not saying the mx1 is a huge diference but the original Q and 01 lens combo is so discreet/inconspicious and because is so straight forward to use im having so much fun experimenting with, wich is taking pics and at the end of the day thats what matters right? not if lens X is better than Y : )I still have my Q and 02 and 06, but it is getting very little use since getting the MX-1. The MX-1 lens is so good it completely outclassed the 02, in my opinion the weakest link in the Q system. If Pentax would only fix the 02 to make it better at long end, I would consider getting the Q7.that know how you and the Q are the perfect combination to make beautiful babies with? :-D

You are right, with 01 the Q is much smaller then with 02. In my case, Q with 02 is not smaller overall then MX-1. There is no denying the Q fun factor, it is a superb small camera, I just wish the 02 lens performs better, so my shots with it have less of a small sensor P&S camera look. Maybe I just have to get 01 and use it like that.The other day i was 'shocked' ; ) to find out that the Q7 is not only a diferent design witch i knew/noticed but its also bigger! not to mention the mx-1, i carry the Q all day with me either in a backpack or on my neck under a jacket and i even forget its there! im not saying the mx1 is a huge diference but the original Q and 01 lens combo is so discreet/inconspicious and because is so straight forward to use im having so much fun experimenting with, wich is taking pics and at the end of the day thats what matters right? not if lens X is better than Y : )I still have my Q and 02 and 06, but it is getting very little use since getting the MX-1.

@ f4 focus somewhere on the dolls and still plenty dof to see other details ; )
@ f8 focus somewhere on the gentleman's arm and way beyond where most people claims diffraction starts to kick in on the Q, but hey it still takes pics! : D

Just classic you nailed it, myself never handled any other Q's variants but this one just feels so right and the shape is bound to be iconic.
I will forever love the Q. I just wish Pentax had done two very fast primes (F1.0 or faster even). I would have never left the Q7 if that was the case but I will keep the Q because the build and everything is just classic.
