>From the pixel peeping I did, the K-3 seems to pick up more moire because it is resolving more. On the flip side, it is resolving significantly more than the K-5 IIs. Also the moire is less pronounced because it is smaller. What I did see was relatively minor and would have to printed very large to really make much difference. I also did some research on the M8 and M9 because I was curious and sure enough those people using leicas deal with moire from time to time as well. Also MF shooters tend to have to deal with moire and Capture 1 has had a moire tool for some time from what I've read. If I did purely portraits I might go for a regular K-5 II, but as it is, I generally want to focus on landscapes and scenery, so the IIs wins.
