If found this site, that some of you may already be aware of, that just compares camera sizes and weights. To my surprise the K-5 was lighter than the Canon T4i. Nevertheless, I will be going again with Canon. But it's still a fun site...
And by the way, if I was going just for image quality in a mirrorless/compact, I'd go with a Fuji X10/X20/whatever. Every review I have read everywhere regarding IQ has been great. (No, still undecided on a non-DSLR. I may, budget willing, get both a DSLR and something else.) http://camerasize.com/ HTH, Marnie aka Doe :-) In a message dated 10/5/2013 8:59:55 A.M.

But the K-5 and K-5IIs are so good... I grabbed a white K-01 as they were closing out. It's actually surprisingly good with a tiny lens, but not so small. It rides around in the car with me now. The K-5 (or IIs) with a 31, 20, or 55 are what I carry now. Hard to beat.
