Amin, have you looked at the Tamrac Aero Speed Pack? I considered it my self only I felt it wouldn't hold enough gear.

Speed packs are at the bottom of the page

EDIT: PS Lowepro also do the "Fastpack" which is simalar.

The value of older Pentax lenses has shot up in recent years, I wonder if it has anything to do with the backwards compatability of Pentax DSLRs

I think it also shows that Pentax are selling more cameras, after all "we" already had collections of old lenses so the majority of these sales must be going to newcomers.

Cant believe the price of that 85mm though

I think we've all had that problem over the years Kris
I went through half a dozen bags and many a night with a stiff shoulder before I decided on my Tamrac Expedition 3, it was small and light and held just enough. When I needed extra space I just used the webbing to add extra pouches, I would still be using it were it not for the increse in size of my kit, by that I mean physical size of the bodies and lenses.

Error code F is when the lens aperture ring is not set to "A" but the 18-55 doesn't have an aperture ring ??? obviously the lens was not fitted correctly or the contacts are dirty.

Ive managed to lose the little plate that covers the polarizer hole in my 16-50 lens hood. Does anyone have one ? or know if they can be purchased with out the hood
Thanks.
I wouldn't bother, probably cost you as much as a new hood and its not going to do any harm unless you have the hood on upside down with the hole at the top.

I lost mine off my 18-35 a long time ago, it was irritating at the time but I never missed it since, PS if anyone finds one of these in Prague its mine

I think your doing extremely well handholding anyway, I have arthritis so mine is permanantly on a monopod, no way could I handhold that beast! But I have managed shutter speeds as low as 1/125 on the pod, occasionally it comes off but only if its resting on something else
