Having never used (or seen) either of those, I'm not sure whether that's

This is good to hear.
I would be interested in your comments on AF focusing in shady areas.
Not so much dark, but just shady.
My K10D hunts quite a bit in this area and would be interested to hear
what you have to say. Lenses most used are the 16-45 and 50-200

I might take the camera down to South Boston or Dorchester; would
those areas be shady enough?

You mean shaded, right? Or do you regularly photograph red-light districts?

The K-5 images are very sharp. I've found that they require much less
sharpening in conversion than did those of k10, k20 or k7.
Of course you'll find numerous "sky is falling" conversations about any new
camera on the lunatic fringe forums. A handful of jpegs can't prove or disprove
anything
