I completed the survey, but was somewhat surprised that when I was asked which Pentax DSLR I owned the following were mentioned:

K-3, K-50, K-500, K-5 IIs, K-5 II, Pentax K-30, Pentax K-r

But the K5 was left out, was this a deliberate omission?

The Pentax K-r came out in 2010 the same year as the K5, but that was listed.
