I find that in comparison to the K-3, which is an excellent camera, the K-1 has better high ISO performance, better autofocus, particularly in low light, and all those extra pixels to play with when I want to crop a horizontal as a vertical. My only complaint is in regard to the overly tight clustering of the autofocus points.
