First picture of Pentax K-5?

Update: as a reader already noted, somebody on the PF claimed the fakery.

PentaxForums has an ongoing discussion about this picture of a Pentax K-5:

Same as above, but processed in PS:

And for comparison, a picture of the Pentax k- 7. Both cameras look identical. Maybe they will be:

    Looks like there’s a direct video button to the left of the rear control dial.

    It’s obvious there’s a K7 on the picture; you can tell that by the card door on the right of the camera – it looks polished from wear … It takes month of use to get it to look like that.

    This picture is 120% fake!

    Pentax won’t put the camera in front of a “student’s” desk fool of things!
