Well, to be frank, we don't have a laboratory and we're not DxO. We're doing what we can with what we have, and our tests are probably as credible as any other user review on the internet or on these forums. Maybe we're a bit more rigorous/serious about it, but we're essentially writing a hands-on field test that also includes some staged testing.
As for asking for ideas: as I stated, this is a review for our community members, who might be considering buying this camera. I don't think it's silly or un-credible to ask them how they'd test the K-30 if they had it.
