Reading the specs on the newly introduced K-5II and IIs gave me relief and comfort with my K-5. Only mildly curious about ISO related AF speeds. Have read that the user should detect no noticeable difference in "normal" light. Jack

I don't understand the fuss. Even the notoriously "lukewarm-about-Pentax" DP Review described the K-5 as "arguably the best" of the APS-C cameras. The new models represent worthwhile improvements over the K-5. True, the upper-level "prosumer" market (where Pentax top-of-the-line DSLRs have traditionally resided) is moving toward full-frame, but there's no reason to doubt that Pentax will get there. I'm so pleased with the results I get from my K-5 that I have no desire at all to upgrade to either version of the new K-5II. -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia http://www.robertstech.com/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
