The K-5 is a different camera all together.
Has HDR features, video (but no 21 FPS), can turn vertical photos on the 
screen, it's faster AF, faster FPS, larger (MP) CMOS and a lot of other stuff.

I'd use 100 ASA for anything if possible, since the image quality is at its 
best here - especially for portraits, landscape and in the studio. Higher ISO 
is for environments with less available light.

Regards
Jens (own both camera models)
