I don't do video so I won't notice any improvements in that area.

Support for PLM lenses was in a previous firmware update - V1.10 for the K3ii and V1.30 for the K3.I believe the K3 did not support PLM lenses but the K3ii does hence no update required
This update (V1.40 for the K3) as well as some unspecified general performance/stability improvements, provides:

It would be nice if the K-5 got an update for KAF4 aperture actuation. I'd then get a 55-300 PML!

Unfortunately none of the k-5 series are likely to ever get a suitable update.

K-3 II, K-3 and a K-70 from SRS (having now relegated the K-30 /"K-50" to a backup body), & some Sigma and Pentax lenses (and a lot of old 35mm gear!)

A shame given that many feel that 16 MP is the sweet-spot for APS-C.

K-30/K-50 are in many ways updated versions of the 16 MP K-5 series - albeit in the "consumer " body config - and can use the PLM lenses with the "right" firmware!
