I decided on a K5II, no S, but the K5II already has a very weak anti aliasing filter to begin with. From the reviews I've seen the K-5IIs is a bit more prone to moire than the Nikon D800E which is also without an AA filter. The samples I've seen of images from the K-5IIs don't seem to have a lot of moire, but supposedly modern image processing software can handle it. Supposedly...

I gather the IIs is a bit sharper, but has problems with moire.  How
problematic can the moire get?

The only difference between the K-5II and K-5IIS is that the latter doesn't
have a low pass filter.  My recent survey of the market for the K5[xxx]
cameras is that the K-5 is often selling for as much or more than the K-5IIs
and that K-5II cameras have mostly disappeared from the more reliable online
retailers.

I have concluded it is time to upgrade my K-r.

The K-3 is a bit pricey, and I doubt my limited skill set requires its
sophistication.  It looks like I can find a K-5, K-5II or K-IIs at a
price more to my liking, and I suspect any of them would fulfill my
needs.

I don't really understand the difference between the II and the IIs.
Can anyone give me a reason to get a IIs rather than a II?
