the requirements for landscape are:
dynamic range which can be solved with HDR.
resolution which can be solved with stiching
width which can also be solved with stiching.
K-5 would trade dynamic range and sealing for resolution and width (due to the crop factor)

That is a DA* 200 in case anyone else was not sure... you can tell from the SDM contacts. :)
OP really should mention it is a Star lens!

I know what he is talking about, he is talking about the RAW file before it has finished loading in light room, when it shows the embedded JPG image and not the actual raw file.
Which also answers his question :) Its not a problem, your just comparing the jpg to the raw and thinking the raw should look like the processed jpg which it should not.

Yeah, so? Knock up your contrast and saturation and voila, you too have 'the look' right on your camera screen!
I have shot extensively with 5d and 5d mk2 side by side with the k-5 and the k-5 destroys both of them.
You wont get better results out of the 5d because, as harsh as it sounds, the problem is your (lack of) skill. Maybe try tweaking your default settings to get the images more to your liking to start with.
The K-5 has the most film like 'response' of any of these cameras, the 5d mk2 has some terrible banding in its noise where as the k-5 has none.
If the issue is depth of field then buy a 85mm f1.4 and I think you'll find the problem solved. If you must go full frame then at least buy a good camera, like a Nikon d700... the 5d mk2 leaves a lot to be desired.

Thanks, but why bother showing us what you can do with noise reduction? We'd buy canon if we wanted smudgy crap with no detail :P

ccd's can overload causing streaking or smearing
This is when a bright source causes the entire row of pixels to white out.
A Guide to CCD and CMOS Sensor Technology
i dont think i've seen an example of it from a k10d though.

I think the DA 70 is better over all... better CA, better bokeh, edge to edge better resolution and half price... not much slower but that is a negative...
