I like to read real user reviews (who are not beholden to advertisers).
I thought this was a well-written and pretty complete review by
someone who also happens to own a Pentax K-5:

Like others have said already, the reviewer may in effect have found
the limitations of the kit lens as opposed to tested the actual IQ of
the camera. This does tell us something, though, i.e. that an increase
in pixel count at this stage may be pointless unless you also upgrade
your lenses. But perhaps we knew that already... The real question is,
of course, if you get any lenses that have capabilities to match the
pixel density of this camara, and if there is, how expensive and/or
"high-end" do they need to be?
That should of course be "camera", and also "and if you do".
But, anyhow, I've long since concluded that online user reviews aren't
even worth the non-existing paper they aren't printed on, so I'm not
sure why I cared to comment...

Also, there are already three reviews (out of 69 total) that rate it
at ONE STAR.

and two more that give it TWO STARS

It looks like Nikon has not done their brand name any favors with
this camera.
