Yes. I give full details of items of over £1000 (eg the K-1) Items under that are covered up to an agreed value.
Its covered indoors and out and doesn't add much to the total cost. Guess if I started to make regular claims they might get upset but otherwise its money for nothing for them. In the event of a burglary I'd get back the value of the main items. Some of the cheaper things aren't really worth worrying about.
I've recently gone through my collection and logged the serial numbers and what i paid for them (where I still have that info) just in case.
Different companies may well do things differently; just ask, at least when the renewal date comes around.
Worth covering cycles and even laptop PCs too if you have expensive ones. Adding onto the house insurance is usually better value than than taking out specific dedicated policies.
If you happen to upgrade a lens, unless its a really expensive one (eg the 560mm) you wouldn't have to notify the company as it would be covered up to the overall amount insured.

Why not lodge a list of valuable items with your house insurance company? Even if you don't they should still be covered depending on the total amount covered for such items.

You'll be back in the fold here before you know it when you still haven't got used to it!
They're handy as a camera for situations that suit them (say carrying round as a just in case camera like an MX-1) but there's nothing like the handling and real viewfinder of a Pentax DSLR for serious photography.
Before the MX-1 I carried a Fuji x10 which is similar in theory but the menu system is so different to Pentax's I could only leave it on a basic setup and hope for the best.
(PS I didn't really think those videos were yours!)

kinda decided to go with the 16-85 for the obvious reasons of the better optical quality and better AF motor.
Don't think you'll be disappointed with one of those.
