Thanks for looking Dan - had tried those retailers (and a few more).

I saw the one on the Ffordes website - the price was vetoed by the domestic authorities without checking the postage!

Will keep checking the retailers and eBay, but thought it was worth asking.

Having tried a couple of different bags to carry my K-X and long lens plus other kit I have found them quite a lot to carry and awkward to change lenses anyway. During the winter I have been taking my Q kit on my walks but have missed having the long lens as the 15-45 on the Q does not seem quite long enough. I decided to try a holster type bag for the long lens (despite protestations from some quarters about why do I need yet another bag!) which in the last few weeks I have found to work quite well.

Only problem with that is carrying other lenses - there is not even room for the 18-55 kit lens - but there is room for my DA 40mm XS. While that fits the side pocket perfectly and is easy to switch lenses, I have found I miss something a bit wider there is still room for another pancake type lens. Looks like the DA 21mm F3.2 Limited would fit the bill. The domestic authorities have even agreed that I should - but not at the price of a new one,

Looking back through the forum, I missed one at a good price at the beginning of the year. So I anyone has one not being used that they want to move on please let me know.
