Hi Paul
Yes, I might. But the K-5 is a nice camera, the K-5II even nicer. All i really
need is better low light AF. I guess I should wait for the K-3 reviews to
appear :-)

The K5 to the K5II is as minimal an upgrade as the K7 to the K5 was. Or,
the K5II is the camera the K5 should have been, except for Hoya screwing
up the quality of the thing. Take your pick.
So far, it looks like the K5II AF actually works, which is more than I
can say for the K5 AF, which only really works in good daylight. Under
studio lights or anything other than daylight, all bets are off with the K5.
I haven't heard of any serious moire problems with the K5IIs, though I
am sure it is possible to design a test where fine lines exactly match
the pixel spacing and so give an interference pattern. I have seen
neither on either Forums Neurotica or DiPshit Review, which leads me to
wonder if moire can be made to be a problem, given the number of people
on those forums who seem to do nothing other than take delight in making
cameras perform badly so they can crow proudly about how clever they are.
