Thanks, good selection there! If you're not keen on the 24-70 have you considered the 28-105? If nothing else it's a bit cheaper!
I believe i have a 28-105mm, will have to make an effort to test it out.

Flea markets and garage sales boxes of lenses to rummage through. Why do i do this to myself?

Hi. Look forward to hearing of your experiences and seeing some of your photos. Which lenses do you like for your K-1?
JAK. D 150-450mm, 28-200mm (from 35mm film Pentax), 28mm f2.8 prime with 2x teleconverter, 20-40 ltd (aps-c mode), 85mm f1.4, and a few others mostly from 35mm film Pentax cameras Tamron, Vivitar, Formula 5, and Sigma. I do have the 50-500 sigma PK mount but since i purchased the 150-450 i rarely use it.

I was planing on a new Pentax D 24-70 but i do not care for its image quality.

I am curious as to the rumored D 50mm.

Recently made the decision to get a KP and a 16-85mm lens. Had rented this kit before and enjoyed it. The 16-85mm works quite well compared to my 18-135mm.

Comparing the KP the the K-3 isn't a complicated en devour. The co-processor of the KP allows for sensor information to be more accurate instead of interpolated. Sharper images over my K-3 but no real improvement in auto focus of moving subjects.

I had intended to purchase the Olympus e-m1 mark ii, however i have many Pentax lenses and the single quick low light exposure of the KP is better when it comes to noise.

I remain interested in the version three of the K-3 if it and when comes to fruition.
