There's a bit more about PF with the K-5 here

Just search for "purple"
Half Man... Half Pentax ... Half Cucumber

Pentax K-1 + K-5 and some other stuff

Apparently Nikon DID copy our bad quality control. What the f**k happened at Nikon? If Nikon starts acting like Canon now, what the hell are we going to do??? What will everyone switch to now? God help us all.

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Seems to be a lot of bad language on that Canon site Don?

also should be warned.... about language.
but still says something about the wisdom of jumping brands....
bottom line... "quit blaming your equipment and learn how to take decent photos" is cheaper than "This brand sucks"

I always wash my lenses on a wool cycle with a slow spin! I find the lens's sphincter prefers it.

I've now cancelled my siggie order in favour of a used 12-24 from SRS, so I will shortly be able to answer my own original query.
