I think if im just out to the beach or pool and not exploring i'll just have the camera and 1 lens,ideally the 50-135 as its not too big.
However I just know if Im out properly I'll bring my full bag and theres bound to be a time when I wish I had the extra reach,I just dont know if that'll be often enough to cart it round.

Think Amin did get screwed over with the airport buy, it's worth contacting him though as he may still have some left.

Park cameras still have the Samsung version listed at £479 if it helps.

Would be worth checking out Dixons stores at the airports as well if you travel a lot.

Also there is / will be / maybe an official case for the limiteds.
Hi
I understand he was stitched up,im flying to Malta on Tues but I dont think Exeter airport has any shops, let alone Dixons
Pentax USA wont ship the limited case over here unfortunaely,Ive already asked.

The 12-24 has rocketed in price with all the others though

I sold my 14mm 2.8 and got a 12-24. Never regretted it, never needed 2.8 that wide, quality is just as good and it's also more versatile.

The 12-24 is a cracking lens, for many others, including prime shooters on here, it's the default wide lens of choice. If you can still find one at old prices, cheaper new than the 14 & 15 as well!
I did ask to be included in the Samsung Airport buy,but as I'd just joined I think I was ignored.
Im really thinking about the limiteds though as I want to get a case made up for them as a travel kit seeing as im away half the year with work.
