DSLR Pics: Cars with the Pentax K7


I was having some early issues with the Pentax K7 and the picture not being composed the way I thought I saw it in the viewfinder. Getting a few frames ruined by thinking I was filling the frame, only to look at the RAW file and find one of the bumpers lopped off by the edge of the shot.


I know that, unlike its predecessor, the K20D, which had a viewfinder that only covered 95% of the image area, the K7 has a viewfinder with 100% coverage. I don't think that's the problem, though, as I use cameras with 100% finders fairly often and try and keep a reasonable border around cars to allow cropping and leveling if necessary.

Anyway, it bears investigating...
