Tom, I know the measurements and weights aren't very different, but the D7000 feels and handles like a much bigger camera. Its owner, handling my K-5, commented on how compact and light it seemed.
It must have something to do with pixie dust.

It seems like a splitting of hairs. Weight difference: 40 G or about 1.4 ounces. Size difference, the K-5 is physically about 10% smaller. Spec-wise though, I'd likely go with the Pentax when comparing those two bodies.
