Take your K-S1 out in one of these bags Algi!
A7R won't go in, it's Pentax only!

I'll get one of those bags....straight after I've had my sex change, or turned into Eddie Izzard..LOL
Oh I don't know, as Gwyn says, lasses are photographers too.
Actually I quite like the roll top type design, you can get your K-S1 with attached 18-55 and is it the 55-300 next door? Then you can bung your lightweight raincoat ontop secured by the roll top I's quite practical actuallly, looks like a big purse rather than a camera bag (Not sure that helps the nickability however!). They like the camera are squarely aimed at Ricoh's home market and like the camera will likely do quite well over there, allowing them to release a boring black box K5/50 update later for us boring Europeans! :arrow:

No waterproofing this time around but you can switch the Blackpool Illuminations off!

He He, I know what you mean, coming back to Pentax has turned out to be at the same time as a lot of Medical upheaval for me! I'm at the hospital every other day and in the days in between cooking dinner for my 92 (Soon to be 93!) year old mother, I just can't seem to get away! Not complaining about it, it's just all time consuming and involves ten miles cycling every day with a knee I'm not supposed to weight bear on at all anymore but needs must...
I'm sure we'll both get out sometime, hopefully before all the leaves fall off the trees!

Posting this, well because!

If only, that it gives an idea what the camera looks like mated to lenses that suit it better than that kit zoom!
Looks are everything arn't they???

Great set Simon, you know you can't shoot fast moving, with a K5IIs don't you? ... Don't you?
Love the Airborne cart, great timing, and the diversity shot is like something out of "Whacky Races"!
