K5 Limited Edition Sale Kicking off, Only 50 in UK
Is the improved grip really that different?
I need to stop thinking about this.

I got mine, and I am very happy so far. I have not done any extensive testing (and probably will not do), but I took some indoors sport pictures this week end. Last time I did that I had my K20D with me an there is a great improvement. Not only the high ISO capability is great (this has been extensively discussed in many posts), but automatic WB seems to be spot on in all pictures I have taken so far. I could not say the same of my K20D.
Great camera and a pleasure to use!
Having said that, the K10 with the M28/3.5 also rocks for my little monster. I'll post up some of her shots soon.
The limited grip is fantastic. Not sure it's worth another €100, but if there's a swap program and it's around €50, count me in. It's so much better it's not funny - and all they've done is add a second finger indent. Makes a huge difference and I feel a lot less likely to drop it. Shutter finger is up, middle finger and now ring finger have indentations, leaving the little one to sit there. It works.
Yes, this was a high street store (albeit in Darmstadt and quite expensive) but they definitely had Pentax in and on show.

But it certainly does not look cheap, I do not know why you would say that
