Opinion: It's the smallest DSLR in the world with Shake Reduction.
The features are from K200D. The camera can work with all lenses with bayonet K, manual lenses, MF lenses and M42 lenses. DA15+DA21+DA40+DA70 + K-m are the good set for travel. The weight of camera with DA40/2.8 - 675 gram.

Opinion: Low weight in the use of lithium batteries AA, makes about 1700 photos on lithium AA batteries, 3723 photos on 2300 mAh NiMh AA acum.(without flash), high-quality images up to 3200, grains like film, high speed focusing, interesting interior filters, firmware after an opportunity to use 8 filter at the same time, good system cleaning dust, reliable image stabilization, extensive use of different lenses, intuitive menu, excellent viewfinder. AF on pentax k-m is faster than on pentax k20 http://www.popco.net/zboard/view.php?id=dica_review&page=1&sn1=&divpage=reg_date&sn=off&ss=on&sc=on&select_arrange=reg_date&desc=desc&no=375&ReviewUrl=PENTAX_K-m_5.htm

Problems: Loud enough shutter. No problems are observed, like everything.

Opinion: An excellent camera by any standards, great feature set at an entry level price. Nice and compact, especially when the "limiteds" are used. Light enough to carry around all day without noticing it is hanging around your neck.

Image quality is very good in all (there are many) jpg settings, excellent in raw.

Problems: none - lots of fun to use.

Opinion: Seriously easy to use and get excellent results from. Battery life from the Sanyo Eneloops is very very good. Have used the the camera nearly every day since end of 2009, and still not getting tired of it.

Beatiful build quality. I think this is a seriously underrated camera.

Image quality is excellent. Am using three older lenses, one beautiful prime from the original 1975 KM. Try that on a Nikon or Canon: shake reduction is sensor based, so I get this with older lenses too.

Problems: Can't think of anything really.
