Okay, now I see what you guys are saying about the K5ii. It doesn't seem
to be much more expensive than the original K5, depending on where you look.
Thanks for all the advice. I may just go for the K5ii.

Hello, Doug,
I'd say, skip the K-5 and get a K-5II - which indeed is a K-5 done
right, and with some tweaks added. If you liked the K-7, you would
like the K-5II even more.
I had a K-5, replaced it with a K-5IIs - it's worth the difference, IMO.
P.S. Both cameras have the excellent 16MP Sony sensor, much less
noisier than the K-7's Samsung.

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?
