owch.

I suppose the taxi driver was fairly chuffed with his tip though.
Probably, I've been in touch with all of the Cab Companies so will see if it gets found, more gutted about losing the photo's than the camera really

How did you mange to lose 2 memory cards?
Lost the camera and 16mm too left in a taxi in Rome
XT2 is not a cheap beast either.... hopefully insurance will cover replacement and a nice new XH-1. Feel for you.[/quote]Luckily it was A: Used and B: Discounted so haven't lost too much, but as it was bought used my insurance won't cover it, still lesson learned and its the reason I didn't take anything dearer with me!

Used them for a few things and they've been ok, never had to deal with a problem, they are a relatively high profile bricks and mortar chain.
Remember if you've messaged them in the last day or so they might be struggling for staff with the weather.

In some respects the fewer lense available for Pentax might be better for someone like me who can’t stop buying lenses!!

The main bits are covered off,UWA (15-30), Standard Zoom (24-70) and your choice of telephoto (Fast 70-200 f2.8 or long 150-450).

I have half an eye on a K1 (1399 is a bargain) with a 24-70, 31, 43/77..... that’s a lot of bang for anyone’s buck, especially compared to kitting out a similar (Nikon Setup)

Why would Sigma bother releasing Pentax lenses just so people could moan about them being too big and heavy etc.

They have released loads of lenses and hardly any have sold. The excellent 35mm f/1.4 Art lens is about £600, but I've never seen anyone on the forums using one

The Sigma 35mm f1.4 is a great lens but I personally found the AF to be suspect on the K1... that and the 31mm f1.8 is just awesome!

Primes have had their day? Are you nuts? Have you seen the amount of new primes for Fuji, Sony and Nikon (updating old ones), they sell plenty if they’re A: Good and B: a focal length/speed folk are after.

I have to admit, I’m sorely tempted to pick one up...

Interested to see what folks favourite Pentax (or Pentax fit) lenses are?
I guess kinda skewed toward full frame for me but I've always loved the 31mm f1.8 - perfect focal length, excellent build and just a stellar lens.

Great deal on whats an excellent DSLR, its frankly mind boggling that you can get this for £1500
