Bong posted some shots taken with one at relatively high ISO, that looked  
better than many cameras at ISO 400.  I believe that it'll also handily 
outperform the K-5 on things like color bit depth, dynamic range etc.  It also 
brightens your teeth, freshens your breath and makes you irresistible to 
members of the appropriate sex.
