You are probably right but i hate to see Pentax join the megapixel rate. I'd rather see them:
a. expand the buffer and card writing speed
b. also there are these unnecessary pauses in camera function. previous thread talked about the need to optimize K5 performance
c. I'm not having a problem with flash overexposure, but they need to work on that issue according to some posters
d. I'd like to see smaller phase detect sensors for AF. Unless there is a compromise here that i don't understand.
By all means, give the K5 another year, K5 super is not a bad idea. Its a great camera, the Pentax community does not need another buggy new camera.
Folks don't realize that another new Sony sensor wtih 24 mega whatever will just be more costly. Better to introduce some more zoom lenses i think or some updated ones. I had to go to Tamron to get the 28-75 f2.8. Work on the system rather than the camera.
