With that lot kicking about! I bet you haven't used the k5 in ages, that can go. The K3II is heavy and image quality out performed by the other two so that can go.
Now lets face it, the image quality between the remaining cameras in good light and for general shooting is not that great so unless you tell me about a specialist area of photography that you enjoy, the K1 can go as well. Once you've done this you can console yourself by buying the DA* 11 -18mm to go on your K70, a fantastic lens and look forward to the replacement for the DA*16-50mm, I know I am!
No fee for sorting you out this time but, further advice may be charged

Lovely set Lenny. The first one is a real belter! And No.6 are my top picks of a lovely set

Bruce I have the Sigma 150-500mm 1:5 6.3 APO DG which dependant on the review you read is as good or maybe better than the Bigma.
I wasn't planning on selling so have no idea of its value but, to be honest it barely gets taken out so quite a lightly used lens (hence this response)
I bought it new, should have the box, certainly got the padded case, hood, both caps, foot and the original sigma strap.
If you are interested send me a PM and we can discuss.

A lovely set Gareth, certainly a fine stretch of coast you live by and as always so well captured. I particularly like the "Cheeky Close Up", 5 and 6 I also really like the "Last minute Mono"

Nice set with No2 being the stand out image for me

Higher than I would have expected for Pentax. Our club of about 60 members has just two of us Pentax users

The handling and the feel of Pentax cameras is what largely led to me buying into their DSLRs. I held some lower end Canikon cameras then stumbled on a KX in a shop, held it and was sold. Sadly in a time when it is tough to find a Pentax camera in a shop new potential customers don't get a chance to handle and feel the difference.

Regarding the lenses, I wonder if the 15-45 is the new 16-50 f2.8, the second lens sounds quite unusual, but wouldn't it pair well with the DA* 11-18mm f2.8 to make a great 2 lens kit! I'd be in. Fortunately at the pace that Pentax move I probably won't have to worry about the spend too soon.
