I was looking at the K5, but spotting that there would be a new DSLR released soon made me wait.
The advantages I see in terms of use so far on the K30 are:
- No more dial mode lock button! (Quicker changing to video, and quicker switching between P,A,S and M (I quite often switch between P and M to be honest).
- The picture with the screen 'in action' looks better to me than the K5 - I was kind of deterred by all the colourful crazyness going on.
Actually, those two points above are what might put me off from a K5 altogether, apart from that I really loved it when I tried it in the camera store. However, I don't like the K30's looks at all, and for roughly 100 euros more I'd rather have a body than leaves dents on the pavement if it falls out of your hands (not that I intend to have that happen, but you know what I mean).
I've yet to make a conclusion on if I am indeed to buy the K5, but whereas I've seen many K5 pro's over the K30, where is the list of the points where the K30 will (probably) outshine the K5?
