Great shot! I purchased a DA 12-24mm some weeks ago, it has already become my favorite zoom lens.

I had been wanting to get this lens for a long time, and finally managed to purchase one some weeks ago. It is a fantastic lens, worth every penny (read Norwegian Kroner)

The most interesting part of this test is when comparing the K-5 with K-5iis "still-life" at ISO 51200, on my screen there is quite a difference.
Hopefully we will get a full thorough review quite soon

Imaging-resource.com studio test shots. Here you can also compare the current K-5 with the two new versions:

Looks promising

I want to upgrade from K20D to K-5. The K20D is a wonderful camera that is the perfect tool for most of my shooting, except for the niche that interests me the most: Northern Lights and night photography. The K-5 will probably be more than good enough for my needs, but the K-5IIs also looks very interesting. What kind of photography benefits the most from a camera without an AA filter? Would there be much to gain with a K-5IIs instead of the current K-5 for Northern Lights and night photography?

A nice set. I especially like 1+3. I lived one year in Gosforth, Newcastle, when I was a kid (Back in the "good ol" 1970s). I would love to visit Newcastle sometime in the future
