If you still have the MX or ME the lenses will also work on your new K5!!

No, no need for that. It's because you have the camera set to D-Range Highlight Correction.
This means the minimum sensitivity is ISO200 in the normal range and ISO160 in the expanded range.
Turn that off and you will have the full range of sensitivity available again.
Good work John!

If that doesn't work in 'm' 'av' 'tv' 'sv' and 'b' then there's something wrong with your camera or menu settings
(NB: In TAv mode the camera sets an appropriate ISO)

I pretty much only use 'M', 'TAv' and 'B' modes myself and in 'M' and 'B' have no issue going to ISO100 without turning on the expanded sensitivity in those modes...
How long have you had the camera?

I think my missus would love one as she also much prefers liveview composition... Shame it doesn't have an articulated screen but I it's deffo a serious piece of kit in the guise of fashionista-photography!!

I find my 100mm macro a joy for portraits...
