Side by side with a K5

Sprags · 11-01-2010, 07:15 PM

Does anyone by any chance have a photo of a K-5 and a K10D together?

What do you guys think the price of the K-5 will be in January after the holidays?

Is it going to be significant enough to wait or should I go for one now?

Look at a K-7, and you'll get the idea of what the K-5 looks like.

Price in Jan is anyone's guess, but I'm tipping it to stay put for at least 3 months.

K10D and K20D are the same, K-5 and K-7 are the same, so no need to hunt for K-5 shots, K20D and K-7 comparison will do nicely, and can be found at dpreview.

K-7 body price fell to about $1000 by January iirc. I expect the K-5 to do the same.

I was hoping to see the two cameras in the same photo to get a good comparison,

Neither camera that you asked for but still a good comparison

Looks like I'll be purchasing one in 2011.

Thanks ....Sprags

Why do you need pic of a camera rather than pic taken with that camera?
They all look the same! Black boxes!
