No, your image won't be cropped, you'll still get a full image. But, it could also cover a 35mm image fully if it were on a full frame camera. Full frame has a larger sensor area than k5 so actually you see more hence k5 is said to be cropped.

Forget about the 100/150mm thing, that's just marketing rubbish. Its a 100mm lens, but when used on apsc it has a smaller field of view than when used on 36x24. So, marketers being marketers turn that around and call it 150mm (because that also has a smaller field of view).

But fyi, a full frame lens on a k5 is actually a really good thing, because rather than using the edges of the glass which tends to be worse, you're using the centre, it's sweetspot.
