I would get it now...no use in depriving yourself any longer than necessary for a small savings later. The K5 is the kind of camera you always wished you had....and once you have it, you are glad you didn't wait any longer. Except for those that had problems ( my regrets) there are precious few that have "buyers remorse" with the K5.....even many with problems still admire the K5.

As for lenses, it would be hard to say without knowing your habits. If you are not just pixel-peeping particular, I have found my Tamron 18-250 to be very good when mounted on the K5. The Pentax model is the same very handy lens. It covers a lot of territory, and does a decent job of doing it. Remember....even slow lenses become fast when mounted on the K5...bumping the ISO is not a problem at all.

A couple I like from the Tamron 18-250...
