I'm certain that the K5 will show considerably less high ISO noise than the K7. However, I find that when exposures are accurate, noise with the k7 isn't objectionable up to ISO 800 or even 1600. For some purposes, like concert pics, 3200 is just fine.
I expect that the K5 will soon be my main camera, with the K7 going to back up.
