Very nice set. Echoing the comments about the QS1 and 01 combo - very nice.

Looks good to me.

One of the Chinese makes may have a suitable lens but most options for Pentax are good zooms (12-24 or 18-35) or larger older designs like the Sigma. You should be able to find the 24/2.8 AF Sigma for less than €150. This would be a good option - compact, good image quality.

I didn't know it was out of production. Will hang on to my copy - very nice lens.

If I can help it I neverf do Monochrome. The world is colourful. But thanks for the comment.I like the first and the third photos. The third one might look good in mono with such a strong silhouette to the harbour wall.

I have a 24mm f1.8 Sigma. Image quality is ok but it is large and an older design. Perhaps the 18-35mm f1.8 might be suitable.

Pentax 12-24 is reasonably priced and good.

I like 3 and 4. Nice work.

Thank you! I might decide to keep it as part of a 3 lens vintage Sigma kit: I have the 24mm and 90mm macro. Just need something in between.
