I'm using a K-3 for portraits and it works great. I have never enabled
the anti-moire feature. More of my subjects have fabric on than not.

Actually, you can A-B it in one particular shoot: subject is wearing
fine fishnet in some shots but bare skin in the exact same pose and
light in others ("Alt.portraits of Madame X").
For me the fuss about moire with the K-3 or K-5IIs is overblown by
pixel-peepers and is not a practical real-world concern.
