Any Street Photographers Planning to get the K-5IIs?

I'd never heard that before. My K-5 I felt had better/clearer images than my old K10D which I think is CCD , but it could have been a different sensor than the K200D.

Do you have side by side samples?

You're right K10D and K200D uses the same CCD sensor, I have never owned a K-5 because of thousands of real life samples I've seen/downloaded from the internet RAW and JPG. This method never failed me. But I have high hopes from the K-5 IIs.

I don't get it.....

Youre saying that the IIs will make you a worse photographer because "a IIs is relying on a tech tweak to improve your photos"?

If I compose an interesting and compelling shot why would the IIs make that shot any worse??

They REMOVED a "Tech Tweak" on the IIs......The AA Filter....If anything the photographer has a harder time now taking that great shot under certain circumstances that we still really don't have any meaningful samples of........
