Originally posted by Jonathan Mac Focus peaking is taken for granted now but not then. I would recommend checking for everything that you don't really want to lose as the K-5 II is old enough that it may be missing some.
I used focus peaking only since my K-S1 developed the aperture error, beforehand only the magnification in case of MF and LiveView.
Didn't take many videos, though can imagine that the MJPEG of the K-5 would maybe be easier to handle in the end than MP4.
Good point though. The K-S1 while not high tier still had a few neat functions, although not very comfortable to hold

Originally posted by romay K3 sometime has mirror runaway. It's said to be fixed by firmware, but for me it still happens, especially when using long exposures or interval shooting.
Had to look up mirror runaway. Found two different versions of it. Basically fluttering mirror and stuck mirror. Ouch.
Dual card indeed did intrigue me, but with a smaller buffer the transfer would still take longer.
Internal scale is tipping towards the K5II
