K7 ability be added adequate to handle because it has textured rubber, but abounding would apparently say that D90 fits in the duke better. D90 is by far the best ergonomic camera that I anytime use.

Both cameras has abounding committed buttons and dials to accomplish abiding users do not accept to abide central card to change accepted settings. Best K7 buttons are on the appropriate duke side, aloof like Pentax k-m/k2000 design. I begin the Pentax K7 blueprint to be a bit more good than D90, but it depends on your preference. So the blueprint ability not be a accord breaker.
