1. "best out" cannot be judged by anybody except by the individual who uses the camera based on his own needs.
2. K-5 cannot take canon lenses, so it doesnt "best out" the 7D of somebody owning a large Canon system
3. any differnces in image quality may or may not exist, but will certainly not matter for real photography, e.g. prints. IF you need a camera solely for 100% on-screen crop- viewing, iq difference may be important. So far I wasnt able to dectect any iq difference in large prints of the more recent aps-c cams (50D, 7D, 550d, 500D, with Nikons D300s being extremly close even with it low res of only 12 mP, full frame is a differnt matter, of course)
4. user interface, lens selection, autofocus and other features determine if the camera suits a buyer. there is no objektive better or worse, just better suited for a particular task and better suited for a photographers handling prefernces.

Your right but what I meant is high ISO which I kind of think it will be about the same.
It will be interesting, but I have serious doubts the 7D will be able comparable to the K-5.
just to add the pricing from here in Slovakia, these are prices from the official distributor´s "Pentax friends club" : K5 body only 1199 €, K5+18-55WR 1299 €, K5+18-55WR+50-200WR 1449€, K5+18-135WR 1699 €, K5+16-45 1474 €, K5+16-50 2022 €, K5+17-70 1669 €, K5+16-50+50-135 2949 €
price of most of the lens has got higher, surprizingly the 18-55 II is no longer listed
