Unless it gets stolen.
I had this dilemma a little less than a year ago. Upgrade my K10 to a K7 or buy the FA31mm. I got the 31mm and the only thing I regret is that I didnt get it sooner (well that and it got stole this summer in japan of all places...).
the K5 will go down in price eventually, the FA31... the opposite. Plus, the FA31 you d get sooner that later. Even though the K5 will be a great upgrade (bodies are much more important than before) it is much more expensive.
Having the same problem now again since I dont have the FA31, but the K10 is getting long in the tooth and the Kx gets taken out at night mostly.
Seriously, get the ltd now, save up again and wait for the K5 to go down in price.
