Ordered from SRS yesterday... K-5 and bits arrived about half hour ago.
Initial thoughts: menus are a bit different to the K-7 but more logical, shutter is wonderful, IQ is stunning, and even the 18-55WR is very respectably made!! LV is a huge improvement, dual level sensor is useful, configuration of RAW button is wonderful.
Have fun John & Sue!!

Didn't take long to give in then!

Ha ha. You're right - once I saw the high ISO results Didn't take long to give in then!
I'd happily shoot to 2500 on K-7. Initial look and I'm happy with 10000 on the K-5
Two whole stops - yahay!!

K-5 6400 is like 800 was on my K20D. I'd claim almost a 3 stop improvement.
Wonderful!!!
Wonderful!!!
