I like this, more than I feel I should, but I can't quite put my finger on why.
Is this the 21mm again or a bit wider?

Very comfortable carry position by your side and the camera falls right into your hand when you need it. It also has a litte pocket for memory card/IR remote. Well worth the money. You may want to remove it for tripod use though I don't think that's too much of a problem. At least not for me.

However they do indulge in anti competitive practices.
I,however, being a tight arse, prefer to pay a quarter to a third of the price for an equivalent product with a slightly more demanding user interface.

Next choice depends on your personal preferences. Personally I'd go for the 17-70 as it is the perfect do everything lens. Spend six months with that and see what focal lengths you end up shooting most of your pictures at. If you find you need something wider then go for the 10-20.
I have to say I love my 100mm macro. That would be my next choice after the 17-70. I started with a second hand 100 f4 which only gives a 2:1 ratio but that was enough to get me hooked. So I boight the DFA100 (well, Samsung version). It opens up a whole new world. Or look at a Raynox adapter for a cheaper alternative.
A K5 with a 17-70 would be quite a combination.
