John - I've been raving about the K-5 for a month - where ya been? also - if you go to the archives, I asked about "wrinkles" or things to watch out for and got a slew of good info - unfortunately across several subject lines..
Here is my K-5 Geso - about half of the photos taken with the 28mm Pentax manual lens , the others with the Da18-55 kit lens I had on my istd

Oh my, I am now really confused. There are k-5, k-50, and k-500 models. Plus there is now a K-5 II. The II is probably what is causing the price drops I have seen on the K-5. All appear to be an upgrade from my DS. What experience have people had with these cameras. Are any or all upgrades from my DS? (Of course they are, but at what cost?) What features am I giving up that I would miss beyond comprehension if I purchased a particular camera model. Meanwhile, my beloved DS keeps grinding out pictures even though they are not full frame and ????? pixel pictures. Seriously, are there any reviews of these models that you really trust.....or distrust? Thank you, everyone, for your thoughts and advice. And I thought purchasing the DS was a hard decision. I do have a couple of film cameras if anyone is interested. Respooling B&W film is not all that bad! John G.
