Re: D600 vs K-5

[Dario Bonazza]

In a couple occasions I had to compare D600 and K-5 (one was outdoor in late 
afternoon of a grey day and the other time was an evening indoors in a 
restaurant) the D600 autofocusing was noticeably better than the K-5. The 
K-5 was hunting and correcting a lot, while the D600 snapped into perfect 
focus with no second thought. I also think it depends on the lens in use, 
but all in all I would swap AF systems in a split second.
At Photokina, I had the feeling the K-5 II has improved a lot over the K-5, 
but again it depends on the lens. The 17-70mm gained a lot of speed and 
effectiveness, while the 50-135mm (aka the sloth) did not improve so much, 
and so did (not) the 12-24mm.
