Yet Another Late K-5IIs Vs K-5 Comparison Review

http://info.xitek.com/pzreview/xitektest/201304/15-119843.html
(in Chinese)

The pictures and crops speak themselves. Whilst the resolution of the K-5IIs images are obvious higher, the very blueish/cold plus dark response of the sensor/camera is also easily noted. Btw, I found that the overall colour response of the original K-5 was somehow blueish already. So, now the K-5II/s is yet even more "bluer"?! >:-o

Actually, it is more color correct than my original K-5 - with K-5, I often had to take off some magenta (especially with Embedded profile), while with IIs colors are much more spot on. Even color tests done on JPG-s show, that dC is lower and saturation is closer to 100% with the K-5IIs.

I have a K5 and i would like to upgrade to an K5IIs. But pentax has such an aggresive price strategy in my country. In the moment the Pentax K5IIs costs almost 250 USD more than the Nikon D7100!! outrageous and stupid!
