That was not my point writing this reply.
It is about wrong information which then sticks in the www!
Anyway, the difference in size is minor, you might well be able to use that slot for any K5 (which I'd prefer over the K7, the sensor of the K5 is similar and has some magic. In the K5IIs it comes to its magic, the best DSLR ever produced with this sensor.
And then you could use the K30 if ever you want a KAF4 lens!
They won't work on the K5! No firmware update, which was the biggest sacrilege Ricoh ever produced!
@ERN: He has a K30 with ABF, that's the whole point why he started this thread because he feels it's daunting to take on the repair
It isn't really, once taken on, it is logical.
