This doesn't work the same on the K-1. On the K-1, in camera mode, it has an interval shooting selection that can work to create either frames or movies, but it still uses the full mirror/shutter path to do so and the minimum interval is 2s. It would be nice if it had an electronic shutter mode

Since they are both much newer technology I suspect either will produce better prints than the 2880. From what I've read, the P5000 is the one to get if you're doing heavy printing day after day. It probably produces somewhat better prints, too, but I doubt the difference would be noticeable
