D-BG4 helped me enormously - suddenly my pinkie had a place to go. I find the right hand body grip doesn't quite protrude far enough; I have to angle my fingers some. IIRC there was a grip enlargement availalbe some time ago from Pentax, I'll go hunt for it. Mind you, I have fairly small hands, too.
Shutter noise is a huge plus - seconded SD hasn't caused me a problem so far, I push down on mine with the slot pointed downwards and it pops out altogether just fine. IQ no complaints either. 170 clicks so far and I'm loving the K-5. Decided to do a PAW this year.
