The K-5 is better in all respects, and the K-3 better in all respects than the K-5.

Except for the button layout on the back. The K-3's review button is on the left, requiring your left hand to use. They moved it to make room for the LV button, but that one seems oddly placed and out of reach. The K-3's a slightly better camera, but the K-5 series is better to use.
