What do you find strange about that?

Well one is a FF and the other is crop,, the other is all these big time wedding pros they use the 5D II for a reason and I don't see any of them using Pentax.

On par in what respect? Not field of view, not DOF range... Which is what makes full frame stand out over APS-C.
[/quote]He didn't say anything about that,, the only thing he said was Noise performance was close and the DR is way better and he liked the build quality better,, now I told SRS Mycrosystems in UK to put a K-5 aside for me but I don't know I am invested in Canon lenses and am still thinking about it but maybe I should wait to see what canon comes out with first.
Oh, OK. I thought you meant it was weird that the K-5 was on par with the 5D Mark II.
5D Mark II still has lower noise at higher ISOs than D7000 and K-5.
Well received the K5 and DA* 16-50 2.8 and sent it back for a refund sorry but I didn't like it, and all that BS you here in pentax forums on how it is on par with FF is nonsense, my 5D II does circles around it in IQ,, even my 7D had better detailed images than the K5.

Well, I mentioned it more than once that the K5 has a strong AA filter ...

Klaus I quite don't understand what the AA filter does?
