The K-5 has now drawn level with the Nikon 3100 (118 votes) great going folks. These things may not be important, but at least they show we care!

Hi All,

The K5 could do with a few more votes on this poll folks, let's not let the Canon and Nikon crowd have their own way with it:

Interesting review, though many of the comments seemed to reflect the reviwer's personal tastes rather than the technical info, and a different reviewer would have probably had a totally different opinion and interpretation.

I was surprised that no mention was made of how they both handle colour balance, as the difference is quite noticeable, especially at the higher ISOs.

Good one - I'll bet the person who made that mistake feels a bit of a tit now!

I normally use a Delkin shade, doubly useful in making it easier to see the screen on bright sunny days: link

Same here, no great hurry, but I'd like to see it under £900 before buying. I could buy now, but I want a new lens as well, so hopefully any drop will help cover that cost and not break my finances, and Pentax will still end up getting my brass one way or another!

A lot will probably depend on what happens to the prices of competing cameras like the Nikon D7000 and Canon EOS 60D, if they start price cutting I would expect that Pentax will quickly follow suit. Looking at the camerapricebuster site (thanks for that useful link), the 60D is already coming down quite a bit, so I think once the D7000 follows suit we'll quickly see some movement.
