It's looking like I'll still be around.
With my own old k3ii and a few lenses.
Tbh my concern is for my daughter, and in all fairness is there anyone here that wouldn't do whatever was needed to try and make sure that everyone was alright.
I think she'll be ok, just going to be a long road for her.
In all honesty, it's a great forum we have here, with a huge community spirit which is invaluable.
Much appreciated everyone. 👏👏👏👏👏

I think I have a way to raise enough funds for now without losing all my gear.
For now,
Deals nearly sorted on
K1
15-30mm
135mm
If anyone has a 100mm filter system we could do a partial trade for the 150mm set.

Thanks to some advice, I'm going to try and hold onto the macro gear, and drop back to apsc so I may still be around.
So if anyone has a k5iis, k3 or k3ii they're not using and fancy trading against any of the above. Just let me know.

I prefer the 2nd one as well.
I went back and had a proper look and took the 2nd shot.

All sorted for now.
K1 gone.
Dfa 15-30mm gone
Samyang 135mm f2 gone
I have enough funds in the kitty to cover any immediate requirements.
I brought her to Dublin yesterday as she was getting a memorial tattoo.
12.5 hour session.
I managed to get out and about for a couple of hours, before the pain started to hit her,
And I stayed with her after that.
So they were my last k1 shots.
I'll have a look through them and see if I got anything worth posting.
Will all be k1 + Samyang 135mm f2
Thanks again for all your support.
Derek
