The person telling me I may be maxed out had the same suggestion you did. Said knowing me and what I like and expect, I need FF. he suggested the d800 as well.

With out going back on my PC to look at exit info, I don't believe I was under f5.6. Mostly F8 or f9 I believe especially in the later images. Some of those are also before the camera was sent out for 3 months and they did a bunch of work to it mostly on the AF system.
I have to admit I don't shoot often and it shows in my images. I feel i should be on a different level if i had more time to practice. I work 80 hour weeks so spare time is limited. Also money is a factor. So if I don't feel like my pictures will improve them I'm not sure I should spend the money.

I'm in my phone so I'm not sure how to add a photo. I use flash all the time. But off camera flash doesn't hp me AF in low light and in some rare occasion I still have to push the limits of my ISPO that I'm comfortable shooting at. I don't like to shoot over 400.
Am I sure that it's missing focus? No, it could very well be just me. I've been told that I might be getting the best results I can for the most part, out of the gear I have. Do I expect too much?

I use an FA 50 1.4, DA*50-135 2.8, and seem to use my sigma 10-20 f4 a lot. I going to notice a big difference in image quality coming from the K20 and might my photos be sharper because of an upgraded AF and low light boost?

I have been learning and shooting portraits for a couple of years or so in my limited spare time. Sometimes I go a few months without touching my gear. I use a K-20d that I'm sort of content with, however I struggle with being content with the sharpness of my images as I like tack sharp. My eyes aren't very good so I rely on autofocus and I know the outer points aren't the greatest to rely on as well but those are what i prefer to use. Anyone have an opinion or solution? Also I've been told i am maxed out on image quality with my gear. Not sure I believe that. I do mostly low light portraits and obviously on the K20d this is an issue.
I guess I'm asking if There is enough people using the K-3 who have personal experience with the K-5iis and thier opinion on the difference in image quality, low light auto focus and AF in general, and higher ISO quality. As very much an amature who rarely gets to shoot am I better off sticking with my K20 wich has been worked on for AF issues in the past, or would I be happier and can I justify purchasing a K5iis or even making the bigger jump if it's that far advanced quality wise to the K-3?
Sorry for the long winded question. Thank you for your time and opinions.
