K-5 has simply best IQ between DSLR Pentax ever made

Jay, I've just gone through the results of my first two days of shooting with the K-5. First day was with the FA43, second with the DA35.

The focus accuracy is stunning. I think my keeper rate, focus-wise, was nearly perfect. There were a couple instances where the focus point was near a DoF-divider object and it picked the background over the foreground, but aside from that it's pretty spectacular. I'll have some examples up soon.
