Wow, great job on those videos! They look fantastic! (Both a compliment for you and the camera!)
I'm still wondering about the compression, they don't really address it in that review other than saying the compression for the pentax is "less efficient," which to me could mean less compressed... and personally better for me. I do some VFX'y type stuff occasionally, and it would be nice if I was able to do it with footage I shot with this. How would you rate its compression with footage coming out of the 7D (or anything h264 for that matter)?

So I'm seriously taking a look at the K5 as my next DSLR purchase, its quality of stills work is well documented, and I really like its look.
I would be getting this camera mainly for stills, but my background is video, and I want to be able to do atleast a little video work with it (mostly for fun!) I know there have been threads on here about the video capabilities of the K5, but not for a while, and opinions change, the camera isn't even a year old yet!
So, now that I got through all that, what's video on the K5 like (in comparison to say the 7D)? How's the compression and noise? One more thing.. the impressive black level resolution of the camera in stills mode, does this carry over to video?
