Actually it seems that Human's haven't evolved in about 10,000 years.
Actual evolution requires death before reproduction, and even the most
primitive societies can keep all but the most sickly of their members
alive long enough to reproduce.

quite an optimist you are; evolution in humans has been superseded by
societal transmission and it's not clear to me that at this point we
are passing on our best to the next generations
on topic: when i had to replace my K-5, i bought … another K-5; a
low-mileage used one in beautiful shape with a few extras, $400 shipped
if i had thought it worth the money i could have afforded a K-5II or
IIs, or even a K-3, but the more i tossed it around i realized the
incremental value was not there (for me) for the cost; the IQ of the
II should be the same, period, the IIs, only a tiny bit better in
sharpness, but otherwise same; this tiny bit is probably dwarfed by my
own faults and practices, though it might make a difference on macro
shots; auto-focus improvements aren't a major value for me as i am
most often using manual focus
the K-3, as i understand it, gives a larger amount of raw picture
data, which might help when cropping, but does not improve
significantly in dynamic range or low light; it may be a better build
and nicer to operate, but at a price
so i decided (for me) there was a significant opportunity cost to
paying more for just a little bit better camera
