I have a K-7 and a K-S2, and the K-S2 is an enormous improvement on the already good and reliable K-7, except for its louder shutter noise.

A late K-5 with bugs ironed or a K-5II/K-5IIs would be a very good upgrade for you and I think it fits in your budget.

I think a new K-S2 would also be within your budget limits, as it is cheaper in the US than here, but if you have spare batteries for your K-7 that you can use in a K-5/II/s perhaps one of those would be better for you, especially because the feeling in your hand and the user interface would be identical to your present K-7.

Hi, troops. As you can see, my beloved K-7 is about to bit the dust.
It's become a little reluctant to change shutter speeds, and I'm not
sure what shutter speed it's ever on any more. I have used and abused it
for years, and now it's tired and wants to go home.

I can maybe afford,if a client comes through, a used K5, and here's my
question: is it worth getting. I know there have been upgrades to it,
but it seems to have gotten decent reviews whe it came out.

My other option is to spend a bit more and upgrade my Fuji X100 to the
X100S, but that would put me out of the Pentax game. I'd like to stick
around, maybe, if the K5 is worth it.

What say you?
