Swop or For Sale

While I have reduced the amount of kit I have by several lenses and a K20 body, I still have too much, and most of it is stuff that I cannot physically use now. The crunch came when my MZ-50 died (the well-known mirror drive gear fault).
So, either the surplus kit has to be sold, or I need a body to mount the remaining lenses on. Hence the “Swop or Sale” headline.
I would prefer to stay digital, although the MZ-50 was light enough for me to handle with relative ease (my MS is getting slowly worse) and an X-5 has solved the problem of handling long and heavy lenses.
Now comes the next problem, if I am offered an interesting swap, do I try to keep any/some/all of my shorter Tamron A2 gear (with 2 x KA adapters and one K), or do I use the adapters to make a particular lens more interesting? Decisions, decisions … .
So what might I like? An *istDS would be more interesting (being smaller and lighter) than a K10 (also interesting), but an MZ6 or an *ist might tempt me just as much.
I am always open to offers, or bundling (but acceptance is not promised).
All prices are including postage/courier within mainland Britain – I am not looking to sell outside this area.
Payment by DBT please (no Paypal).

Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

My page on Photocrowd - link

1 - It's a bump!
2 - Pentacon now sold to Kree
3 - Having searched my soul, I have decided that I do not want another film body.
That cuts my wish-list down to *istDS, or K10, or maybe a K100, bodies only, do not want to trade for much else.
4 - Open to offers on anything.
Geoff
