Same thoughts here, the body size of K5ii and S5 and is FF, also like the range of 20-60.
I also did some comp on imaging-res and the S5 show a lot of fine details at the same isos ..compared to the competetion

That was one of the other things that sold me on the S5.  I have always been a little disappointed with the level of detail capture when using the K-5. I have a little Panasonic GM1 (m43) that seems to out-resolve the K-5 fairly regularly.  I have only figured out in the past few weeks that a big part of that was probably a lens issue with the K-5.  ISO noise also comes in pretty quick on that K-5 and it seems like the S5 is cleaner up to much higher ISO settings.  That 20-60 lens should be really useful.  I'm looking forward to seeing what the 85 f/1.8 can do.  It seems to get a lot of praise.
