Actually as Ann stated I believe this go around it is a tie. Both are excellent captures and I can't wait for things here to begin blooming.

Timing of K-5's arrival was impeccable. Today we drove to Jerusalem Botanical Gardens only to catch the last days of Sakura blooming. It is indeed the sight to behold - the immense wholesome beauty... I can only imagine (well, I don't think I really can, but still) how it looks in Japan en masse. Please have a look: http://pentax-ways.blogspot.com/2011/02/peso-2011-05-sakura.html As for K-5 - unlike with K-7, the match between us was practically instantaneous. Most probably because of the time I spent shooting with K-7. I am not entirely happy about its AF (in particular with Sigma 24-60/2.8 that I use the most these days), but the editing latitude that its sensor is giving to me is outstanding. I also find that its meter exposes to the right even to the point of slight overexposure which is easily taken care of in post due to sensor latitude. And the colors - they are better in my eyes than those of K-7. But these are very preliminary impressions. DNG files however are huge - I am going to have to buy new storage sooner than I planned. And indeed, I am going to have to be somewhat more selective about what I keep and what I delete due to the same reason. Oh, please be brutal and honest about the pictures. I think Galia outdid me again, but I am starting to get used to it.
