Hi RicardoDo you really want the answer to that question? I shot the K-5 vs the OMD on a back lit subject at ISO 3200 both. The K-5 had notably more shadow data, details, etc. while the EM5 sent them to crushed shadow mush. I may post the shots later. Oh and the K-5 did the same shot when there was a little less ambient light.
But to be frank, I think the IQ of the EM5 is quite good for a wide variety of situations and I think focusing on photography more than these differences is the way to go. If the EM5 didn't have the fast primes it would be a different story but it has them.

funny you should say that - there are great deals on the K5 at the moment, and my son has just put his A77 and lenses on ebay, so that he can go back to 16mp with the K5 - I think he's right . . . Me? I think the IS on the OMD probably makes up for the difference, and I'm much too slow to photograph anything which moves anyway
The k5 is a fine camera, one of the few I really miss. (I don't miss QA with Pentax lenses however).
