The real question here IMO, is how often one would really need to print 2x3
meters? So far I haven't seen a real need to upgrade from K-5 (the
original). In fact I am very much satisfied by 12mp of Ricoh GXR-M.
That said, the fact the tech is constantly moving forward is a great thing.

The difference between the K-5 IIs and the old K-5 was pretty easy for
me to see as well. A 2x3 meter print would be a rather large
enlargement for anything, film or digital, and I can tell you that I
know I would be able to see a difference if the lens used was
out-resolving the sensor in both cases. Even if it really wasn't, the
center should at least be sharper in the higher pixel density image.
