Thanks, Chuck (and Ken) for your thoughts.
Full-frame has never been a bother, but body size is a serious consideration,
and the K-5 looks small and light.
It would mean selling my 12-60 and 50-200, but I'll wait a bit longer and see.
If I did go the Pentacchio way, I should have to switch to m43 for my second
body in order to keep my Oly List ticket :-).
As an aside, my younger son has just switched from his E-500 to a Canyon 550D;
he lives in London (working at the Covent Garden Apple shop) and he enjoys
going around London making photos. I have challenged him to a day's people
photography in London in the next couple of weeks.
